Kristian: Restructure Brees? Not so simple, and awfully risky

Jamessr · 02-24-2013, 10:33 AM

I get the whole Brees/Manning/Rogers/Brady talk...
What I don't like it last year we lost Carl Nicks. Who will it be this year? Heck Jimmy Graham next year?
Ofcourse I like having one of the top QB's playing but we're losing talent around him too. Im worried that the defense will still stink and the O Line will make Brees look like Cutler....
Then what the hell is a 100 million QB worth if you don't have talent around him?
Other issues I have is wtf are we paying Harper and Smith close to 7 and 12 million a year? You gotta be kidding me...
Both of those guys should have been released.

2 mil separates Brees from Manning. How does Denver do it?

Offense wins GAMES.
Defense wins CHAMPIONSHIPS.

We spent our wad on offense so we set records every year.

Our defense set records last year as well... ;-/

BS. Our 25th ranked defense did not win any championship or Super Bowl.

That defense created 39 turnovers, and let's be real, they won the vikings game with all the turnovers they caused. Our offense sucked that day. Then they were huge against the Colts in the Superbowl. You don't have to be dominant, but you have to make plays. It's a team game. Teams win championships.

But we set an ALL TIME record, no? Most points allowed?

We won't win a Championship without a defense, so I call BS on your calling BS.

Dat Drew is damn disappointing!!!!

Jamessr · 02-25-2013, 07:44 AM

If our defense was ranked anywheres from 15-20th in the league we wouldn't be having these conversations right now.

Drew didn't play well in some games...
Jimmy Graham dropped alot of passes...
Defense stunk week in and week out.
Don't even begin to mention the shutout vs Tampa. You don't get credit for beating a bunch of bums....
That what good teams are suppsoed to do to bad teams....Beat the like red headed step children

Until we get rid of some of the 'dead weight' (Ellis, Will S, PRob, Harper etc) on defense, I expect to see more of the same in 2013. Its time to hit on a stud in the upcoming draft, bring in a proven FA and play some of these YOUNG guys we have. Rob Ryan, please let loose Martez , Galette & Jordan !!
