"They played incredible right from the start of the game," Brady said. "Eighty yards on the first drive, and they never looked back. "I think that gives you a sign of things to come for this New Orleans offense," Brady said.
"Now the question is, can they do that consistently well?" Brady, a man who many Saints fans loved to hate during his three years with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, offered his analysis of the Saints following the 44-19 drubbing of the Cowboys in Arlington, Texas. Brady described offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak as being "on fire" with his play calls against the Cowboys. "They mixed personnel, they mixed formations, they had these challenging motions, and then they got these chunk plays early in the game off the play action," Brady said.
" Derek Carr , we had a lot of questions about him. He made some A-plus throws today down the field, hitting guys in stride." Brady believes the Saints' success will come down to the play of Carr moving forward.
"He looks so comfortable in this offense," Brady explained. "One of the knocks on him in his career is throwing the ball under duress. And I think what Kubiak has done a good job of is he's not allowing these defenses to tee off with their pass rush.
So in the last two games, Derek has just been standing back there finding the open guys, and no one's ever criticized Derek's arm or arm strength, his ability to get the ball down the field. He's just got to do it consistently well throughout the entire season. "Those are the types of questions Derek has a chance to answer for himself.
