From Hero to Zero? Rex Ryan Bluntly Says: ‘Jordan Love Isn’t Trustworthy Despite His Impressive Season!

Legend Drew Brees provided evidence that the Saints had a chance to make a comeback, but familiar mistakes once again led to their regrettable loss against the Bears. New Orleans, Louisiana – October 21, 2025 In the wake of yet another disappointing loss, Saints legend Drew Brees has weighed in on his former team’s struggles — and his analysis hits hard. According to Brees, the Saints “had every opportunity to turn things around,” but once again, familiar mistakes and a lack of execution doomed them in a 24–10 loss to the Chicago Bears. “They had chances — real chances,” Brees said during an appearance on NBC Sports. “But the same mental errors, penalties, and lack of discipline are what separate teams that win close games from those that keep finding ways to lose them.” The Saints entered the matchup hoping to reignite their season. Instead, they produced a frustrating repeat of the same script — strong opening drives followed by stalled red-zone possessions and self-inflicted wounds. Quarterback Spencer Rattler completed over 73% of his passes, but most came on short throws, as conservative play-calling and an overwhelmed offensive line limited New Orleans’ ability to attack downfield. Penalties and missed assignments repeatedly killed momentum. “You can’t win when you keep cutting your own momentum short,” head coach Kellen Moore admitted. “We lacked focus when it mattered most — and that’s what separates good football teams from everyone else.” Brees’ comments also highlighted how far the Saints have fallen from their old identity — one built on precision, efficiency, and leadership under pressure. “This team reminds me of some of our early 2000s squads before we figured it out,” Brees reflected. “The talent’s there. But until they play disciplined, team-first football, results won’t change.” Defensively, the Saints struggled to maintain intensity. Missed tackles, blown coverages, and a failure to pressure the quarterback allowed Chicago to control the tempo. Linebacker Demario Davis admitted afterward that the unit “lost focus at key moments.” The Saints now sit at 1–6, and while frustration grows, Brees insists the solution is still within reach — if the team truly commits to change. “They have enough talent to win games,” Brees said. “But talent without accountability means nothing. Until that changes, every Sunday will end the same way — with regret instead of results.” Final: Bears 24, Saints 10 — a painful loss, and as Drew Brees bluntly put it, “proof that opportunity means nothing if you refuse to learn from your mistakes.”
