He will either get it from us or somewhere else.
Drew isn't a player who must prove himself because he has spent 10 years doing that. In 2015 he played 15 games, many of them hurt: 68.% completion %. 4870 yards 32 TD's 11 Int's We aren't going to pay him Joe Flacco money? 10 games: 64.4% completion % 2791 yards 14 TD's 12 Int's |

If would benefit Drew to get the deal done as quickly as possible. Anything can happen between now and the start of next season, anything. Drew stands to lose a lot more by letting the negotiation or should I say no negotiation to drag on. In my opinion of course! lol

Just curious...
Since Payton was known as a QB guru before we ever hired him as HC, what percentage of Drew's success would you attribute to Coach Sean Payton's coaching and system? The truth is that no one really knows. Luke freaking McCown looked great in the 1 game Drew missed. Just throwing that out there. |

You're right, hard to tell, but stick Luke in there prolonged and let teams get substantial film on him and it might not go so hott |

I will be sad when Drew Brees is gone. Once in a lifetime player. SFIAH |

Sure Brees has been the top passer in the NFL for the past five years, but what has our record been? At the end of the day, I'm a Saints fan and want to see us hoisting the trophy from Goodell's clutches... With respect to Drew, I don't give a **** who the quarterback is as long as he's not losing games... And if it's a middle of the pack passer with a balanced run attack, I'm just as happy as we keep our eye on the prize... |

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
