Obviously Brees and Stinch were friends, and might have come as a wake up call to Drew... even guys who have been to Pro Bowls and were considered good players in the past will be gone if they don't produce now. I don't know if it was the right move, I thought Stinch was a solid player, not spectacular, but solid. He was getting slower it seems so perhaps it was time. But anybody thinking Brees isn't bummed about this needs to think again.

I think it is clear that some of the things that were taken for granted have come to the surface now and put every player on the team on notice, I can't imagine the gravity in camp right now.

And about Drew, yeah he always says that people need to improve, the difference here is the specificity of how they need to improve and what exactly is going on. No player, coach or whoever generally does that, because the more specifics you talk about the more information you give other teams to gameplan against you.
The things he said probably weren't hurtful because they are all things that likely won't be an issue during the regular season, but nonetheless you could tell the normal filters weren't quite there.

Hey im relieved...All this boo hooing over a Right Tackle that was the weak spot on the line is funny...The dude gets his cash anyway..he would have got Drew murdered this year...lets move on..I have faith in Strief and Brown ..and we still might bring in a vet that gets cut..If this guy was Drew best friend then why didnt he tell him tighten up or your going to get cut?...this is just Drew being a nice guy...I just hope he goes to the Bills or Browns and were off the hook for his salary...:)

Yeah, I enjoyed playing for the Saints.......I'm Super Rich now so screw you guys I'm going home I don't care how badly you need me.:moon:

Hey at least were off the hook for most of his salary...:)

He sure blew his route against the niners, and Brees didn't forget that.
