Drew Brees What’s up Who Dats Authentic Wil Lutz Jersey , Tee Word is here with the New Orleans Saints Player of the Week for week 3 of 2018! The Saints picked up win number 2 in a thrilling overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons in Atlanta. The game was as hard on both team’s players as it was on the hearts of fans of both fan-bases. The Saints prevailed 43-37 and Drew Brees was amazing en route to earning NFC Offensive Player of the Week. Who am I to not recognize the Greatness that is Mr. Brees?In a game that featured very little defense and players exiting the game with season ending injuries, it was obvious that an offensive player would earn player of the week once again. The expected standouts threw their hats into the ring, including Brees, Michael Thomas, Alvin Kamara, and the suddenly surging Cameron Jordan. #Cantguardmike was near unstoppable while catching all 10 targets for 129 yards but was held out of the end zone on the day. His 95% catch rate on the season is impressive as he’s hauled in 38 of 40 targets and pitched in 3 TDs through 3 games. Kamara had his best rushing output of the season with 16 carries for 66 and 4.1 yards per carry average. Jordan has picked up his pace since a quiet week one and recorded back-to-back 2 sack performances including 4 tackles and 1 assisted tackle against the Falcons in week 3. But the day belonged to Brees, who refused to be denied the end zone or victory. At the final gun, Brees had accumulated 39/49 completions for 396 yards and 3 touchdowns. But his most sensational play was a 7-yard TD scramble that featured an amazing spin move away from two defenders and a dive for the goal line that set up the game tying PAT to force overtime. Brees got off to a hot start and played turnover-free football early while carving up a depleted Falcons defense at will. He completed passes to nine different receivers on the day including a 4-yard TD to Ted Ginn Jr. to open the scoring, then later an 11-yard TD to Cameron Meredith, and finally a 1-yard TD to Zach Line. After setting up overtime with his sensational 7-yard TD, Brees closed the game with a 1-yard goal line plunge to cap a 15 play, 80-yard drive for the win!In a see-saw battle of division rivals, the Cool Brees proved once again why he is still considered one of the best in the game. And to put icing on the cake, Brees broke another record in victory by becoming the all-time completions leader, passing Brett Favre with 6,326 completions in his career. Another nice achievement is the fact that Brees is the only quarterback to defeat an opposing quarterback who threw for 5 touchdowns and no interceptions. Matt Ryan (2018) and Eli Manning (2015) are the only two QBs to fall short in such a way. Brees was the assassin both times!As always, Thanks for reading, Be Cool Who Dats! Tampa Bay's best start in eight years has dissolved into a .500 record that raises more questions than it answers about whether this finally will be the year the Buccaneers end their long playoff drought.The Bucs (2-2) weathered Jameis Winston's suspension for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy better than reasonably could have been expected, thanks to Ryan Fitzpatrick becoming the first player in league history to top 400 yards passing in three consecutive games.A porous defense, however Youth Patrick Robinson Jersey , is threatening to undermine a season that looked so promising after Fitzpatrick led the team to wins over New Orleans and Super Bowl champion Philadelphia to start the season.Last Sunday's 48-10 loss to the Chicago Bears sent the Bucs into their bye week amid questions about whether coach Dirk Koetter might fire defensive coordinator Mike Smith during a break that couldn't arrive soon enough.Despite being throttled by a Bears defense led by Khalil Mack. Tampa Bay has the NFL's top-ranked passing attack and is No. 3 in total offense.The flip side is the Bucs have allowed a league-high 139 points through four games and have given up more yardage than every team except the Kansas City Chiefs, who are 4-0 despite their shortcomings on defense."We've got to own it and we have to fix it," coach Dirk Koetter said in the wake of what the coach described as a "horrific" performance against the Bears.Koetter is adamant, though, that firing Smith, the former Atlanta Falcons head coach, is not the answer.Not even after the Bucs were shredded by Chicago's Mitchell Trubisky, the No. 2 pick in the 2017 draft, for 354 yards passing and six touchdowns."Sure, any play-callers on both sides of the ball would love to have calls back ... anything that doesn't work," Koetter said. "But we have to figure that out, and the nice thing about having a bye right now is we've four games of our own to look at."Since firing former coach Lovie Smith after the 2015 season, in part because Tampa Bay was having problems stopping opponents, the Bucs have invested heavily in the defense through free agency and the draft.Injuries have tested depth on the defensive line, as well as in a secondary missing cornerback Vernon Hargreaves III and safety Chris Conte.The absence of a consistent running game, capable of keeping opposing quarterbacks on the sideline for extended stretches, has hurt, too, considering the Bucs faced Drew Brees, Nick Foles and Ben Roethlisberger in the first three games."It was easy for me to stand up here and say we faced two Hall of Famers and a Super Bowl-winning quarterback. That wasn't the case (last Sunday) Cheap Mark Ingram Jersey ," Koetter said. "Tip your hat to Trubisky for doing what he had to do. We need to focus on what we need to do better."Lovie Smith was let go after a season in which the Bucs finished 10th in total defense, allowing 340.4 yards per game.Through the first month of the season, the current Bucs are allowing 358 yards per game through the air, 445.8 yards overall.Opposing quarterbacks completed 70 percent of their passes in 2015. It's 77.1 percent after four games this year.Koetter has a longtime relationship with Smith. They worked together as assistants under Jack Del Rio in Jacksonville, and Smith later hired Koetter as his offensive coordinator when Smith became the head coach in Atlanta."First, let's get one thing straight. It has zero to do with relationships, OK? None of this is about relationships," Koetter said."This is business," the coach added. "This is how I make my living, and it's how every guy in this building makes his living, so we can put that one to rest."One change that is occurring, though, is Winston regaining the starting quarterback job. He sat out the first three games while serving his suspension and replaced Fitzpatrick in the second half against Chicago with the Bucs trailing 38-3."Fitz's combination of experience, talent and leadership is valued at a very high level here," Koetter said in announcing the decision to bench the 35-year-old journeyman backup and play the No. 1 overall pick from the 2015 draft."At the same time, Jameis Winston is the guy that's going to be here way longer than I am," Koetter added. "He needs to be playing, and he will be unless he gets hurt."The Bucs return to action on Oct. 14 at Atlanta.
