3. Drew Brees

The Carolina secondary is one of those units that produces misleading
stats. They play very few good passers, and as a result, they look more
competent than they are. When they face good quarterbacks, they
wilt. Matt Ryan threw for five touchdowns in two matchups. Matthew
Stafford threw for five in one matchup. Aaron Rodgers topped 300
yards and threw for two. And this week’s opponent, Drew Brees,
threw for 360 yards and two in the earlier matchup. The Saints are
playing for a win, and Brees is having a historic year. Start him with
confidence.
