Who here still has faith in Brees

I too support Brees, BUT lets not forget who lead the NFLPA on last seasons lockout . I expect him to do something radical,like holding back in training camp and forcing the Saints to trade him if he doesnt get the money he wants.If he had the balls to stop an entire season of football,he can handle one team...

While I sorta agree with some of the stuff you said compairing his contract to the lockout negotiations are apples and oranges. During the lockout he was a face that represented the entire NFL players assoc along with other players in the league or past. Here he is simply negotiating his contract. It happened the same way with Manning. It takes time to get these things done and he knows it. We are sweating this a lot more than either Brees or the FO.
