Brees starting in spite of injury?

How dare they start Brees and win the game! Now we lost a draft position! Boo hoo. Stop the whining.

He was drafted to possibly be a backup and the Saints can see everything they need out of him in practice.

We drafted a QB in the 3rd as a potential back up?... Really...

We all know practice is the best indicator of how your going to do in an actual game... Oh wait, that doesn't sound right. Practice! Are we talking about practice!

Lastly, from the hindsight is always 20/20 field, if Brees had a career ending injury because of his lack of mobility last week the same folks saying "see that's why you play Brees" would be the same ones throwing stones today.
