Re: Would things have been different if...
No need to get angry... just realize you are wrong. 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!!! |

Re: Would things have been different if...
Bolts isn't a troll nor is he jumping on the bandwagon. He's been here for quite sometime following our team... Brees in particular.
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? |

Re: Would things have been different if...
...are you kidding me we know the original play and that was to draft a QB to take over for Brees who they felt wasn't the answer. They were buying time starting Brees because he was still winning and they were giving time to Rivers until he was ready. Injury was just the excuse they needed.

Re: Would things have been different if...
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.

Re: Would things have been different if...
Well I am doing the math here:
Brees Manning Rivers Rothlisberger Technically the Chargers had there hands on Brees and Manning then traded for Rivers yet they could have also had Rothlisberger. So in order for a Chargers QB to get a ring they need to go to another team. I say the odds favor the Saints and Brees!!! |
