Brees falls, Top 100
 

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Not really surprised by this. The list is fundamentally flawed. I don't completely get how they compile the votes (each player only picks 20 players.) but they're doing it wrong.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

I felt the same way when we had the Dome Patrol. Jackson, Johnson, Mills and Swilling were continually disrespected by the national media.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Brees had another great year but he had some pretty atrocious games

5 picks vs atl and 3 picks vs SF with 2 pick 6's

The list is flawed due to players not being on it (jimmy graham, jahri evans) but brees is about right at number 11 for last year

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Its not about how they played last year...its where you'll think they will rank next year

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

They use 2012's stats to say why that player is ranked there so its the top 100 players going into 2013 season

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Blah blah blah. I hate those lists. Its almost impossible to compare players from differnent positions trying to make such a list.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Which is a fundamental flaw.

Guessing who will do what in an upcoming season to compile a list of the best 100 is flawed as much as the leagues seasonal MVP voting being held before the season is over.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Exactly it's just stupid

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Of course Madden felt differently.:bng:

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Seer1, I would like your comment over and over if I could.

Wait....... That sounds kinda creepy.

How bout this instead.

Seer1, I would take your post behind the bleachers and make love to it!

CRAP!

I agree with you Seer1.

That is all.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

I just want to see this year. Last year is over.
Once the 2013 season starts, that list is over.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

these lists are just as pointless as those NFL.com 'what if?' scenarios.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

The acid test for these lists will be when Rodgers, Brady, Manning have a down year like Brees did, how far will/if they drop?

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

Brees had the greatest down year in the history of QBs. Another testament to how great he really is.

Who else could throw for 5000 yards and 43 TDs and have it called a down year?

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

The NFL.com what if's?!! What about the What If's that show up here? "What If the Saint's didn't win the Super Bowl........." ect. ect. ect. ect. LOL

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

And I would like your comment too except then I'd feel obligated to trade phone numbers and such.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

I agree with you 100%. They play on different teams with different players against different players with different coaching philosophies in different stadiums that have different types of turf that are either indoors or outdoors.

I do have proof that all these things make a difference. I don't think anybody ever considered Drew Brees as one of the best QB's to ever play before he got to NO.

Re: Brees falls, Top 100
 

All I can say is, somebody better show this article to Drew. I want to see him walk into training camp with a chip on his shoulder the size of a boulder. I don't think there is a player in the NFL who plays better when they're angry and ticked off than Drew Brees.
