Hitting his stride

Full Story Here: "If you've paid close attention the last two weeks and still have doubts about the progression of Drew Brees as a professional football player, then you've missed the wonderful poise and control that he has exhibited throughout this season.

As the clocked ticked down in the third quarter my heart began to race, and visions of late game (and late season) collapse began to fill my mind as they have in years past; these images grew as a Kerry Collins pass found the waiting arms of Oakland tight end Teyo Johnson in the end zone. The momentum had shifted, the Coliseum rumbled as if you were in the heart of Rome, amidst a great battle. A two point Charger lead no longer felt like a lead at all. To say I was skeptical is an understatement, but one thing we have learned from these Chargers is that they truly are a team, and do not appear kin to those of recent past."
