If anyone wanted to put an asterisk on a Saints season, this would be the one!

So let me get this straight -- in addition to projecting your gloomy mood tonight onto the next four years of Saints football, you are also worrying about hits on Brees that have not happened yet. OK.

Sorry, guess I should have a beer and celebrate...

I've seen Brees getting clocked a lot more this year than the past 3 seasons. I also remember a game where someone fell on his throwing shoulder on a 3rd down and he went to the sidelines and had to work the kinks out.

All I'm trying to say is that the offensive line is not cutting it lately and he is taking a lot more hits than normal. That adds up - ask Peyton Manning, Big Ben and a host of others who are bigger built QBs than Drew.

Sure he can have another 10 Pro Bowl seasons - IF he gets the protection...
