3. Drew Brees gets back on track against Panthers

For the past few weeks, Drew Brees has been off his game. Ever since his interception against the Falcons, he’s been playing inconsistently. He barely throwing for 200 yards when weeks ago, he would throw for 300 easy. Maybe he’s slowly starting to show his age, but it’s been a rough time to watch.

Going into Week 15 against the Panthers, I predict Drew Brees will get his mojo back as the Panthers are not that good. Last week, they were beaten by the Browns when they had plenty of time to win. They’re the perfect team for Brees to try and get back the spark he’s been missing.

One major issue in the last few weeks has been his decision making. Brees has always been known for making smart throws in his career. The past few weeks, he’s been making little mistakes that end up costing the offense. In Week 15, he has to right the ship when it comes to that especially.

He also needs to take care of his interception problem. Brees went a majority of the season without throwing even a single one. Since playing the Falcons, he’s thrown at least one in every game. He’s usually such a smart and accurate thrower so it’s a little bit troubling. Brees has the perfect opportunity to pick apart Carolina’s defense.
