Re: Please get off of Brees

Yep. We will be back to the old QB carousel before long crying about that instead. This team has decent RB's, one weapon as a receiver who is an amazing #2-3 but not a #1. Right side of our o-line is a disaster and our defense will make any opposing team look hall of fame worthy.

Re: Please get off of Brees

I'm appreciative for everything Drew has done for the Saints organization & the city of New Orleans.

Some of you are worse than the media, are any of you working for NFLN

Re: Please get off of Brees

We can't win without him.
However the big question is: can we win with him? We do have a number of issues that probably cannot be overcome by any great QB.

Give him the time he needs to get this injury right and then watch him come out all guns blazing to prove the doubters wrong!

It's not his fault the Saints are 0-3, the whole team needs to move up a gear and get themselves playing how they know they should be and that includes the coaching staff!

GEAUX SAINTS!!!

What was his excuse against Arizona?

Perhaps playing against arguably the best team in the NFC at their home? So far he is one of possibly 12 different QB's that will lose to the Cards this season.

And that's the rub. If management had vision, they would have already been grooming the 'heir apparent' who would have benefited immensely from Brees' teaching. As it stands, in Star Wars terms, any Padawan who learns under him may not have the Jedi Master long before he moves on.

Most people don't think Rodgers benefitted from Favre. He was already good.

It is all good and well to want the QB of tomorrow, but give me Brees for four more years instead of moving back to the days of Aaron Brooks and beyond. Simply put, you don't replace a part until you have a working part to use in its place.

Yes, McCown did well this week. Brees would have done just as well. In fact, I believe McCown played as well as he is capable ... and he lost.

You know the old saying, "beware of what you wish for, you just may get it." Personally I not wanting to go through another 30 year stretch of mediocre to poor QB's that have no shot of breaking .500 in any given season. No thank you.

Then why the hell did we draft Grayson?

My opinion is that he'll be an above average QB, in about 2 or 3 years, when Drew Brees starts his father time decline.
