Summary

Quarterback Rank: #1All Players: #13

The Saints had a down season as a team last year but Brees sure didn't. Brees had his second straight 5,000 yard season and scored 44 total touchdowns. Brees did turn the ball over a little more than normal for his standards with 24 total turnovers but it was a three-game stretch late in the season that padded those stats. He was pretty turnover free besides those three games. Brees has five straight seasons with 33 or more touchdowns. He also has 5,000 yards three of five seasons. He is a model of consistency in the Saints' offense. And at age 34, he still has plenty of good years left in the tank. He knows the offense inside and has a great rapport with his receivers. Brees is extremely accurate (completes 66 percent of his passes for career), makes great decisions, and spreads the wealth to a host of talented options in the offense. The Saints try to have a balanced offense, but remain pass-first with Brees at the helm. He makes the offense tick for the Saints.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Brees should be one of the first three quarterbacks off your board come draft day. He is a model of consistency for fantasy teams. You can pretty much pencil him in for 5,000 yards and 40 touchdowns. He is a consistent factor from week to week, which is another huge plus. He gets his weekly chances to air it out in this offense. We don't see him slowing down at this point of his career.

'When you have a great quarterback on your team, great quarterbacks can't have a conscience,' Vitt said. 'They're going to stick tight throws. They're going to make great plays.

New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees saw his streak of 54-consecutive games of throwing a touchdown pass come to an end Thursday, Nov. 29, against the Atlanta Falcons. Brees threw 50 times, connecting on 28 of them, and passed for 341 yards, but failed to put one into the end zone. He did hit RB Darren Sproles for a passing touchdown, but the play was flagged for offensive pass interference on TE Jimmy Graham. Brees threw five interceptions during the game, which was a career high. Following the game, Brees said he has to hold himself accountable for the team's losses the past two weeks.
Fantasy Impact: It was a bad time for Brees to finally have a down game this season. He hurt a lot of playoff hopes for fantasy teams.
