Brees coming back?

I fully believe if Brees comes back next season, he will be better than Brad Johnson, Trent Dilfer, Joe Flaco, Nick Foles or a handful of other QBs that have won the SB. Just my opinion.

I couldn't agree more. I feel the exact same way.

Well don’t waste your time. I’d rather have drew back than you

Any other position (except kicker/punter) on the field and he would be done and possibly would have a year or two ago. This has become a QB starved league. Even hurt he's still top 10 and healthy top 5.

That is absolutely true....within 20-30 yards. After that not so much. Don't get me wrong I love Drew but this is really a young mans game.

We could debate what Brees has left in the tank, but I certainly don't see the NFL as being QB starved, not at all. I mean, we managed to sign Winston to be a backup for close to league minimum last offseason. The success of Burrow and Herbert has also bolstered a position that is pretty strong compared to usual league-wide.

Not a one my friend. I’m just saying, drew coming back is much more important to the Saints than you watching the games. Drew gives us the best option.
