The Jets still haven't found the replacement for Namath. They said several other franchises have never even had a QB of that caliber to even replace. They said while Payton can coach anyone, the offense will have to be different because Brees was so special that he could handle that offense. They said there's no way to expect anyone else to step in and execute that offense. And the leadership will be impossible to replace. His ability to lead was unparalleled.

I stayed positive throughout that mediocrity. When it comes to the season I'll still predict us to go undefeated (just like I did throughout the prebreesian era) and on game day I'll be sitting in the same spot fully expecting a win just as I always have. I won't be bemoaning every tiny thing that goes wrong during the game, nor will I spell doom and gloom after.

Good luck with it but it’s not your nature, and while we may differ on things quite often we are if anything true to our own natures.
