Adam Schein: Drew Brees Isn't Elite

My list: Manning, Brees, Brady then Rodgers.

"Oftentimes, you will see Brees lumped in with Rodgers, Brady and Peyton. I don't think that's accurate. The 2012 campaign counts against Brees, as he struggled some without Sean Payton (posting an NFL-high 19 interceptions) and New Orleans missed the playoffs. But his numbers, wins and feel put him at this worthy slot. I actually think Brees is in his own category -- right after the elite trio and right before Roethlisberger."

One thing I learned from drinking. You should always go Christmas caroling with a group. Oh, and always in mid-December.

Re: Adam Schein: Drew Brees Isn't Elite

67 picks over the last 4 years is bad.

Fourth sounds about right.

161 TDs and 20,435 passing yards. Fourth may be right, but lumping him with Big Ben is silly. His first SB he played like garbage and the TD was thrown by a WR.

Re: Adam Schein: Drew Brees Isn't Elite

Brees threw 19 interceptions in 2012 but he also threw 43 TDs. He threw for over 5000 yds without his head coach and under the guidance of an interim to the interim head coach who was also out for a half season. The GM was missing for about half a season also. Rodgers spent this year injured and Peyton Manning just lost his second out of three Super Bowls he has played in. Do we not count Peyton's post season failures or Rodgers' injuries but we count Drew's one "bad" season against him in determining if he is elite? Ask any team not named Seahawks, Patriots, or Broncos if they want to trade their QB for Drew and let's see how many of them suddenly think he is elite. Fourth place my sweet behind!

Or fatty lice, or Joe Fluccko or Andrew Luck, or Scum Newton, or Punkernick.

None would trade for him, so at best he's top 10.

Remember opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one and they're mostly full of mess.

First ballot hall of famer.. The only quarterbacks I might consider taking ahead of him are Luck, Wilson, and Brady. Operative word is "MIGHT".

This guy is a bag. Im not being a homer either. I give credit where credit is due with other QB's as well. Everyone has their own opinion on different things, its just his is about as well taken as a bowl of sh!tty toilet water.
