Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

The wins and losses are more important but still...even a failcon would have to admit that 50K career yds is coo.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

I've yet to see a loss because someone was gaining yardage (more than 4 yards/ ATT)

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

After 147 last week, i say he gets it.


6 - Consecutive seasons in which Brees will have 30 touchdowns if he throws one against the Panthers, which would pass Brett Favre for an NFL record

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Regardless, just win the damn game!

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Brees having an average night gets this one done.
I hope he turns the dome out tonight.
We need a little salve on our wounds.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

I'll no longer predict wins and losses in Saints games anymore. I'll just say I hope we win, and I hope we win big. Carolina was a dangerous game to me whether they were 9-3 or 3-9. They give us fits. I believe in our team. Hopefully I don't have to go on a Drew Brees rant tonight. Who dat.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

True, both of these teams are Superbowl quality teams.

I'll be crushed if we lose, but I certainly won't go into the silly "we suck" mode so many seem to do if we lose.

We had a short week after a humiliating defeat, a long screwed up flight home, and we're playing a divisional rival that we historically don't match up well against.

The only thing that would surprise me is a blowout by either team.

Go for the Gold ... it won't hurt to predict even if you are wrong....! :bng:

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

My prediction: Saints get first defensive TD of the season!

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

He'll get it no problem.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

I think he has 244 as of Hartley's FG.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

There it is.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Congrats to Drew!

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Those idiots last week were going nuts trying to give the MVP to Wilson. The real MVP race is between Manning and Drew, winner most likely to be decided by who goes furthest in the playoffs...even though I think it should be taken into consideration that Manning plays on a team that is good enough to take Tebow to a post season victory.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Have you picked your jaw up off the floor yet? :p

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Actually playoffs will have nothing to do with it since the award is announced after the regular season but before the playoffs.

I truly enjoyed watching Brees hit 50,000yd against a rival, and to think 8,000yds has gone to Colston, incredible.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Well it certainly surprised me for sure.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

I want a repeat of '09-'10 season. Manning can have one more NFL MVP as long a Brees gets another ring and SB MVP. I think Drew will agree.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

Manning is gonna be a lock for the MVP. He has like eleventy billion more touchdowns than Drew. The media wave is too big.

Re: Brees--he needs 287 vs Carolina to hit 50K
 

i'm still floored by ALL the records he keeps setting.

50K wasn't the only benchmark last night...
