Article: Ring would thrust Brees into Hall Debate

MIAMI -- Since signing with the New Orleans Saints as an unrestricted free agent four seasons ago, Drew Brees has thrown for more yards than Peyton Manning (18,298 to 16,939), has just as many touchdown passes as the Indianapolis Colts' star (122 each) and owns a passer rating only slightly lower (98.49 to 97.27) than that of the four-time most valuable player.

Great article Strato. If Brees wins on Sunday, he will definitely be considered in HOF talks.
