That'll show Brees.

What personal feelings?

Jimmy was reportedly furious that after Brees signed his big contract he went on TV and claimed that Jimmy is a TE, so the Saints could pay him less money. He then went on to comment that if Jimmy left, the Saints would be OK. I know this should be just business in the NFL but some of the passes that Jimmy has ignored because they were slightly poor passes made me wonder.

i do not know about all of that but next year when Drew can redo his contract Jimmy should feel better. if he does not then Jimmy will have plenty of company.

Jimmy's playing some of the best ball of his career. 78% completions would indicate that not only his he not ignoring any passes but he's catching more than he ever has.
