Can't say as I read the Skid Britches article (for obvious reasons ... my "smoke blown up my butt" gauge is registering full-capacity at the moment, ;)), but I tend to agree as well.

It's a simple comparison of the #9s, IMO ... Brees/Stafford ... who'dya rather? Brees, who despite lacking an offensive line or defense, keeps ya' in the game, completes 70% of his passes w/22 TDs and QBR of 98.1 or Stafford, who despite lacking an offensive line but having a decent defense, hasn't seen the end zone in eight qtrs., completes 59% of his passes w/13 TDs and a QBR of 53.2? Both have similar situations going on, yet one is able to maintain his composure and still perform at a high level. Who'dya rather?

The grass is not always greener on the other side (for the Brees detractors), be thankful for what you got on this, our national holiday. I drool at the thought of having a QB of Drew Brees' caliber, if not DB himself, taking snaps for the Lions. They'd be a legitimate SuperBowl contender if that were the case. JMO.

I'd take Brees in a NFL-minute ... just sayin', ;)
