NEW ORLEANS ― For what could be the first time in Drew Brees’ life as a New Orleans Saints savior, he failed to do something he set his mind to.

He apologized to Michael Jordan after the game.

As blasphemous as this might sound, Jordan might need to be apologize to Brees for trade-marking dunks instead of finger rolls.

Because Monday night, Brees was that good.

Jordan was a great talent, but not 1/100 the leader Brees is. It was all Phil Jackson on the Bulls.
