Brees' book is outselling SP's!

I'm most of the way through Brees' book, but haven't started Home Team yet.
I'm a life-long, die-hard Saints fan, but I have to say I haven't enjoyed Brees' book all that much... Hoping for more from Payton's book.

Some parts of Brees' book are great, but he spends a LOT of ink repeatedly talking about how 'God has a plan for me, I don't know what the plan is, I have to trust God's plan,' etc.
He hits on this so many times throughout the book, I start to feel like I'm being preached to when reading it.
