I agree. I don't think you can throw guys out that played 40 years to reach the numbers they're at. I mean wasn't Testa in his 40's and playing? How old is Kerry? To me, they aren't good comparisons.

Another SB and he's an absolute lock, 1rst time eligible.

I agree 25. What were Vinny Testeverde's, Drew Bledsoe's and Kerry Collin's numbers at age 32, and how long did they play. Testaverde had 46,233 career passing yards, but he only had 22,075 yards at the age of 32, Brees has 35,266 yards. And Brees only had 221 passing yards his first year in the league. Vinny Testeverde played in the NFL for 21 years. If Brees plays the same amount of time, he still has 11 more years to go. If you're gong to compare, compare apples to apples.
Oh yeah, how many records does Drew Brees own?
