Don't blaim Brees if he is livid. He was frachised before and shown the door after he got injured. Very well could happen again to him. It is a business for these guys and they have to protect themselves. Hard to imagine on the other hand when 18 million isn't good enough, if that is in fact a true figure.

only difference is before he was released by the Chargers he wasn't offered the chance to become the highest paid player in the league, which he turned down when we offered it him

The difference is the Chargers already had his replacement under contract.
Rivers was drafted in 2004 so they had already paid him for 2 years to sit the bench. We don't have Drew's replacement yet. Big difference in the tag usage.
