Hmmm...

I seem to remember Culpepper wearing the Lions' uni as the last one in the NFL?

does brees want that extra money because with bounty gate some defensive players may take a "shot" at the saints by hitting drew harder than normal? (kind of a retaliation vs the saints for percieved bounty hits on others) AND he will(likely) be without Nicks...He could be bracing for some devestating shots and trying to financially secure his family should he ever be forced to retire...just a thought

Maybe, but if he hasn't already secured his family's financial future with the earnings he has had, he really should change accountants.

Best fit for him, but can they afford him?

Yeah, I don't think they can afford him with Shaub's $8.3M cap hit for next season, and I don't think they want to part ways with him either.

It would be a good fit, but I doubt the Texans are looking for a QB, even one as good as PM.
