Drew Brees bounced back from a terrible performance last week.

After finishing last week against the Atlanta Falcons with 287 yards and no touchdowns.

People were starting to question is it time to start a conversation about Teddy Bridgewater instead of Drew Brees. Well, although it wasn’t his best game of the year, I think Brees heard you. He put on a clinic with his footwork and timing.

However, instead of folding to the criticism, Drew does what he always has done and that shows the world why he is considered one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of the NFL. He ended Sunday with average yardage at 228, but this time, Brees threw for three touchdowns.

Drew Brees continues to be the quarterback that will lead the New Orleans Saints to their next Super Bowl appearance.
