Looks like the Norman situation opened some issues with Brees?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; 38 in 9 months. He;s not exactly a spring chicken is he. Paying 30 million is insane, paying 47 next season would be plain stupid. Cant'say that doesn't hurt and at 38 a long term deal hopefully gets someone fired....

Re: Looks like the Norman situation opened some issues with Brees?

It appears to me that Norman went to the highest bidder; why isn't he being called out for being greedy like Brees is in the PFT article?

Washington will only sniff the playoffs because the rest of the NFC East is as bad as they are.

The Saints defense is the anchor that is dragging the team from at least winning the division!

I don't think Washington wins the division. Giants did make defensive moves. Cowboys have that oline. Giants also fired Coughlin to jump start that team. Eli might be on a short leash.

I call BS. Smoke screen to try to get another defensive player to fall because someone reached for a QB.

We draft another QB in maybe the 2018 draft

Re: Looks like the Norman situation opened some issues with Brees?

he is one of the best to ever lace them up. we will rue the day he retires. He is going no where, and yes he is aging, but you wouldn't know it by his numbers. he nearly hit 5000 yards while missing an entire game. He did that behind an oline that wasn't all that hott and a horrible defense. Meanwhile who were his receivers? You want to know how good he is? watch Ben's numbers with the ravens this year.

And who will be his receivers next year? The FO is looking like Meachem will be on the field next year and I have no idea who's snaps he takes. The offense didn't do enough though and Streif is gonna get killed by what we have next year.

Cooks, Sneed, Coleman, Fleener, Hill, Ingram, Cadet, Hightower, draft picks, practice squad, undrafted free agents. I mean take your pick.

It was barely a year ago that Graham was traded. That was followed by all the hand wringing about who would catch the ball. Yet another 4800+ yards later, the hand wringing persists.

There's no guarantee that Streif is going to be playing RT at the start of the season. Also I have absolutely no idea how skill players catching the ball have to do with Strief...

Re: Looks like the Norman situation opened some issues with Brees?

look if wants to play games i am on record as saying he is not god at this point in his career. This is not a Archie type of situation. from a business stand point time to cash in is close at hand

If he was to be traded then the manner in which he gets traded is up to Drew and his agents demands.

Trade to a contender of the highest bidder is all up to him at this point.

It is all up to him.
