I can, and I still think they'd be playoff contenders.

But instead of a 12 to 13 win team, we'd be a 9 to 10 win team.

And if I'm not mistaken, a 9/10 win wildcard team won the last two Superbowls didn't they?

You are not mistaken. And if the $23 million continues to pose an obstacle, since $19 million is not enough as the highest paid QB, we may have to duplicate the effort of the last two Superbowl winners, not that there is anything wrong with that!

Perhaps, but I think we win the divsion without Brees anyway.

I like his fire and ability to make plays with his legs. And if the Saints ran the ball a whole lot more, I agree they would be competitive. But, in the very limited reps I've seen of him throwing the ball, it doesn't make me confident in his overall ability as a starter in the NFL. Best case is them winning 7 games this year without Drew.
