How awesome would this be! Drew Brees for 10 more years!

45 maybe not, but I bet he could play until 43. Favre played that long, and Brees is not nearly as dependent on his arm strength or his legs as Favre was, and he doesn't subject himself to a beating like Favre did. Either way I think we've got at least 4 more years of Brees and a lot can happen in that time.

Maybe he can set the new bar.... retire at 50! He'll need several pay cuts along the way as it is unimaginable what his cap number may be at 45. On the hand, his cap number and diminishing skill set is likely what will gently nudge him out.
