His quick release and decisions and a great asset, but he simply can't take a whole season anymore and is spent by the time the playoffs come around. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl...ets/ar-AAXjisK Mebbe he comes back as a coach?

The only "coaching" I see Brees doing is for his second-oldest - Bowen. Only 12 but is super competitive like his dad.

Originally Posted by K Major (Post 952210) No he can't & Brees is done. Under no circumstances is he remotely interested in suiting up at age 43 to have 300 + lb man chase, hit, and sack him for 4 quarters of NFL competition. End of an era, the book is closed. Father time is undefeated. He's not returning to play football. Period. It's the off-season. The media will take any story and run with it, hoping that it sticks. Whether you want to accept it or not, coach Dennis Allen is team Jameis Winston for 2022.

"I think it was a comment made in jest, and we certainly haven't had any conversations in that regard," Allen said.

Allen had a follow-up question that asked if Brees could still do it.

"I don't really want to live in those hypothetical worlds right now. We'll see where it all goes, but certainly he caused a lot of interest, that's for sure."

General manager Mickey Loomis said he didn't see it either, and also hasn't talked to Brees. It's hard envisioning this scenario playing out, but certainly makes for a fairy tale type of scenario. For the foreseeable future, this is Jameis Winston's team, and he's the unquestioned starter going into the season.

One can make a valid argument that the defense was plenty good enough all those years, and the Saints did not get it done. Not trying to pin all those failures on Brees, but the truth is he was very inconsistent in the post season everyone of those years. Guess the short of it is no thanks, moving on, lets see what Winston can do.

I’m gonna be aggressive and go for deep penetration into the end zone!” The LB says “No way man. Be Defensive and cool. Let her call they play then you get a sack and score! The Kicker says “Either way fellas, can I just split the uprights for the PAT ?”.
