Pretty cool huh?

Yeah, real Kewl! Thx Halo

Brady has to get 190 yds plus whatever Brees puts up this game. If Brees can manage 150 yds I would say his record is pretty safe. Either way he will always go down in history as the first to break it.

I would like to see Drew get at least 250 yrds. Remember Brady did throw for 500+ yards the first game of the season

If Brees get 300 plus yards the record is safe... Unless the Bills defense lets Brady go wild!

I don't see this being an issue.... Unless They decide to rest
Brees and that would kinda piss me off.

First to break a record that has been broken many times is not something that will last in the memories of anyone but a Saints fan for more than a week or two.

If Brady ends the season with more yards I am going to have hear more of how he is the greatest QB that has ever lived. I will repeat what I put in an earlier thread.... F--k Tom Brady!

Brady is going up against the 15th ranked passing Defense, who is also 5th in interceptions...

Brees is going up against the 21st ranged Defense that is 19th in interceptions.

As long as we do not pull Drew out he will be fine...

Now Brady "could" conceivably come out if the Pats get enough lead on the Bills.... He is all they have for the postseason.

The media would love for Brady to get the record 1: he's not a Saint 2: he plays for a big market team in the north east 3: they would say that was fitting for a future hall of famer. 4: It's what we deserve because we were throwing so late in the Clowns game. I think Brady is a great qb. and he has thrown for a lot of yards this year, he has had to. But Brees is as great if not better and has put these # up in a much better way, he has'nt had to, this is just the way we play. No matter the outcome Brees broke the record in 15 games not 16. I hope Brees keeps it.....

Rec was broken. Brees did :bng: . Done. Brady is afterthought breaking Brees' rec.
No big whoop.
Recs are made to be broken, saying goes.
Fact is Brees broke Marino's.
I agree with halloween.

Even though it is not his throwing shoulder, Brady is injured. I can see Belly-check running up the score real quick and then pulling Tom.

Unless I miss my guess, he gets about 250 in 2-3 quarters of action.

Thus Drew would only need 100-150 to stay comfortably ahead.

However, I'm hoping since it is a new year we have a new Rams team (or at least one willing to undo the damage they did to us) and Drew has to stay in as the Rams win a nailbiter.

Drew's final numbers? Let's say 31-39 for 413 yards and 3 TDs.

And I'll also stick with my score prediction from the past several weeks. Saints 31 Opponent 21

I respect Brady, And I don't care one bit about him getting the record.
If Brees gets a concussion over 50 STuPID yards, then we are idiots.

We lost starters Jimmy Graham, Chris Ivory, and Malcolm Jenkins ,all injured in a meaningless last game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,last season.

Brees already broke the record 2x's basically. If SF starts to blow out the Rams get every starter out, period. If SF is losing we have to keep playing.
Or payton needs to just say forget 2nd seed , this is our bye week, we will play as 3rd seed, and rest everyone. That would be smart also.

I agree - I definitely wouldn't risk him over the record, but I bet he wants to be in there more than anyone else.

Let's just hope that the Rams give us a reason to have him in.

Plus being undefeated at home has never been done. That would be a nice thing to add to this season, as well as matching the franchise record for wins at 13.

I remember the last time we won 13 games in the regular season and that turned out very nice! :)

Yeah, but I also remember what happen vs the Seahawks because we lost those guys. Really wouldn't care if Brees wanted to play, pull him. Its the smartest thing to do. Let Brady have it, if he can pull it off, we'll take the Lombardi instead.
I will be really disappointed if we lose an offensive lineman, sproles, colston, or a critical player on defense over some record, and it cost us a playoff game.
GB beat us because we didn't have Moore, Smith, and porter playing. We need everyone to beat them.
