Drew Brees not receiving Pro Bowl praise despite gaudy statistics

I'd like a little less stats and a little more rings.

1. I dont want any of our players in the pro bowl. It gives them a chance of
being injured. It also makes them cost more.

2. 80% of Drews yards this year were Garbage Time. He got 400 yards yesterday, in a game that was over with 8 minutes left. Garbage Time.

In today's weenie rules, Trent Dilfer could get 400 yards per game.

I'd like a little less stats and a little more rings.

Drew had some choice comments about King Goodell, not surprised by the snub.

At this point, it could be Brees' mistakes that have become more memorable because players and coaches aren't used to seeing them. Brees' worst stretch in 2012 occurred when the Saints needed him most. Brees combined for nine interceptions against the 49ers, Falcons and Giants to help push the Saints out of playoff contention.

Just rereading that made me want to get out tonight's Jello shots early. That was so brutal.

I have no problem with Brees not going to the Pro Bowl this year. It's not like I was going to watch it anyway.
