He is 40 years old after all so I don't hold it against him but I kind of feel father time started catching up to him as the season progressed.
I couldn’t disagree more with their takes, especially when you look the play broken down. The Saints movement and formation had all of the Rams D moving left, and the db scrambling from the other side of the field, resulting in the clear PI. Brees’ arm looked a little tired down the stretch, but lack of a TE threat and WR option other than Thomas, really slowed the O.
