Our defense sucks so bad I think he feels forced to make things happen, hence the ridiculously dumbass throws this year.

Not picking a fight with you Danno, but,

I know I'm just a retard college professor, so it pains me to point out that the number 14 is not less than 10,

and,

"dumbass" is a Brooksian term.

Please try to make a more coherent argument for why we should tolerate bad from our most expensive player other than, "he was once good a few years ago," and "he was at his best this weekend when he handed the ball to PT/KR."

Well as a College Professor you should realize that when someone says "playing like a top 10 QB" doesn't necessarily mean "is a top 10 QB".

And as a college professor you should realize that being officially ranked at 14 isn't "bad", in fact its in the top 50 percentile. But perhaps as a College professor you didn't realize there are 32 teams. I'm a lowly Engineering grad but I can still calculate that 14 out of approximately 32 is better than bad.

And as a College professor you should also know that he wasn't "at his best" when he handed the ball off. His passing set up the tying and winning scores.

And as far as "dumbass" being a Brooksian term, well I have no f'ing idea what the hell that means, but I'm just a left brain Engineer.

Oh and as a College professor I'm quite sure you're familiar with the term... "SCHOOLED!!!"

schooled? hardly. seems more like you accept mediocrity. get paid like a top 10 player? then play like a top 10 player PERIOD! he gets paid to much to be willing to take "14 out of 32 is better than bad".... wow..... now THAT's a killer argument.

I don't think even a College professor can read what I wrote as accepting mediocrity.

Xan you're ridiculous with your hatred of Brees. Yeah he sucked on Sunday but even best QBs go through rough spots and that's all this is. Do you seriously believe this team would be better with a bargain basement QB? Who do you think could come in here and legitimately beat him out?

The QB is going to be the highest paid player on the team unless he sucks or you have an Adrian Peterson or Calvin Johnson.

So I'll say it again your post on the subject of Brees are ridiculous. I know this is a futile post but I just had to say it.

All the damned dropped passes are hurting his stats. About a third of his passes are dropped balls.
