Bree's has incredible work ethic, so his age doesn't bother me. Give him a good online and I bet you'd change your mind...

I agree about his work ethics, undeniable. But so is father time, undeniable. A 4yr contract puts him at 42 1/2 yrs. old. Payton is all about an aerial attack, stretching the field and so on, for Brees to play at even a decent level at that age would be more of a ground and pound O with short to intermediate passing game. I don't see it. I want be changing my mind wheather the Saints sign him to a big contract or not, but I will root for the Saints with or without Brees pulling the trigger even if I think it's a good move or not.

Father time is undeniable, but in today's NFL where the QBs are protected like they are, 42 isn't a bad age if he takes care of himself-which he does. We have no idea what level he'll be playing at 42,but until he shows some major regress, I feel no need to worry about father time. All he needs is some good protection. I do understand your concern and respect your opinion though. I do think that 4 yrs. should be max for him.
