5. Drew Brees

Just 0.7 percent behind Johnson, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees comes in fifth, with 4 percent of the votes. After achieving limited post-season success in the first four years of his career in San Diego, he was signed by the New Orleans Saints in 2006. Despite being a smaller quarterback at just 6 feet tall, Brees hasn’t once thrown for less than 4,000 yards since arriving in New Orleans.

Speaking of New Orleans, Brees’s impact on the city has been indescribable. After Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the destruction of New Orleans, including the Superdome, Brees was instrumental in the rebirth of the city – and not just for generous donations and helpful aid. No: Brees led the Saints to a 2010 Super Bowl Championship, the first in the franchise’s history. This victory gave a city of people whose lives had been uprooted a few years earlier something to rally around.
