What can New Orleans Saints fans learn from this season and this Super Bowl? Quite a few things.
Lesson 1: How to win without your starting QB.
Brady’s role in Deflategate led to his suspension for 4 games this year. What did New England do without him? Win. They were 3-1 with Brady watching from home, having Jimmy Garoppolo (according to some sources, a possible thought for a backup to Drew Brees in a trade, though financially it may not be feasible…) and Jacoby Brissett as their starters. Whether they coached them up or simply drafted better talent, the fact that they won 3 of 4 games with Brady sidelined is very important, not only for today but also for their future.
