You think the thread is stupid... well speak for yourself! I though it made good discussion but I realize that you and a few others would like to stir the pot and turn it into smack.

Well being that I've been to a few Saints games... I know that the vast majority of their fans are not like you and that's a good thing!!!
You are one of the few bad seeds.

If i were a bandwagoner... The saints would now be my team instead of the chargers.
If i were a troll, i'd be shouting rivers over brees.

I'm not doing any of those things... There for, you are wrong!!!
Anyway... Enough about you and the other who wanted to stir the pot. If you think this thread is stupid, then why are you posting in it? Want to see a troll... Check the mirror.

End of discussion!!!

Now back to football!!!

We have our franchise quarterback and they have theirs. What's there to look back on? If it was the right move for everyone? Does that really need an answer?

Thanks papz.

We'll never know what the original plan was and I agree that there isn't much to look back on. It just makes an interesting discussion.

I mean obviously the Chargers didn't feel Brees was their future franchise quarterback hence the drafting of Rivers. They wanted a veteran quarterback until they felt Rivers was ready to take over. It worked out great for both sides. One thing I'd like to say... Drew Brees might not have became the Drew Brees he is now if he stayed in San Diego. Our offense was catered to allow him to be the player he is now... I don't think that would have happened over there.

Had he stayed in San Diego, he'd still be successful. Then you guys might have ended up with Rivers... but you would have had to make a trade.

I think that Rivers may just be second to P. Manning in the AFC. Everyone likes to lump Brady in there but at this time I would put Rivers and maybe Carson Palmer above him.
