What about throwing Bush out there as a receiver? Change your mind> I would love to know the number of dropped balls by the Saints receivers this year...Probably watched 90% of the games and can't count on one hand the number of dropped balls..Who ever Brees throws it to, seems to come up with the ball.

brees most accurate qb in the league

if the colts are 10.0 on Receivers/TEs than the Saints are 9.8

yes that close, complex equation

bingo. I think it's a virtual tie. Both offenses have plenty of weapons and I think both offenses have Qbs make the receivers look better than they really are.

Brees is great at buying time and throwing the football in spots where his WR's can easily make plays......outside of Colston they are no better than slightly above average IMO, but Brees and the very underrated RUNNING GAME of New Orleans makes it easier on the NO WR's to make plays....

Peyton's abiltity to read defenses and be one step ahead allows him to find the one of one matchups, which helps his guys flourish......Clark (a WR playing TE) is a matchup nightmare and Garcon is a younger version of Reggie Wayne

overall IMO Wayne has the edge over Colston by a little and Garcon is better than any of the other Saint WR's......Clark much better than Shockey at this point.....advantage Colts
