San Francisco - New Orleans Game Notes

The fact that Drew Brees can throw for 363 yards and 3 TDs with his top 2 receivers out is amazing. It looks like Lance Moore (7 catches, 101 yards, 2 TDs) has become his possession receiver, and Robert Meachum (2 catches, 99 yards, 1 TD) and Devery Henderson (1 catch, 81 yards) are his down-field threats.

What the Duece? With 83 yards on 21 touches, it looks like McAllister is part of the offense again. Just don't bet too much on him, as he remains an injury risk. Pierre Thomas becomes next to useless until Duece's next injury.

It appears that Mike Martz's offense has no emphasis on protecting the QB. O'Sullivan was sacked 6 times Sunday, and is taking the same kind of beating doled out to Jon Kitna last year. At this rate, he may not hold up for the season.
