I can remember when Phil Simms going over 60% was a huge deal...

Clearly he's done. He's old and has a noodle arm. He and Sean must go.

Having a real threat in the running game also helps your completion percentage too...

Re: Drew Brees regains NFL's record for completion percentage in a season

I haven't followed the team, for reasons most know, but I'm not surprised he has regained this record given how his stats would seem to indicate he became more of a game manager this year. If he could complete 71% of his passes in a time when he aired it out more, he can surely do better in a conservative style.

The justification for his salary has always been that he's elite. I guess "elite" has a different meaning now, if people still think he should make 30 million or more. But, that's just my two cents from the outside looking in.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
