Brees completed 28 of 47 passes for 292 yards, with three touchdowns, two interceptions and one lost fumble Sunday against the 49ers. Brees connected with eight different receivers, throwing two touchdowns to tight end Jimmy Graham and one to wideout Brandin Cooks. However, his fumble proved to be especially costly, as the 49ers recovered it in overtime, setting up a game-winning 35-yard field goal to drop the Saints to 4-5. Despite the turnovers, Brees reached the 290-yard mark for the eighth time this season, and he's thrown seven touchdowns in the last three games. Up next is a Week 11 matchup against a Bengals defense that is much better against the pass than the run this season, though they are still allowing 248.9 passing yards per game this season, ranking them 19th in the league.

Bad performance. Held on to the ball far too long on many plays late

Brees has at least been steady this year fantasy wise although I'm still waiting for that monster game from him.
