Brees makes average money for a QB. Nearly every QB earns 20 million per year. This is not a well thought out post, you clearly did not look at all the factors

Jesus people it's done, get over it.

He's tired of saying next year. Why did he not say something sooner?

I don't think a defense was gonna help with that terrible first half. Oh and wasting a TD drive on who else............Fleener. That MAY have been the game decider.

The reversal on Fleener was BS! We have all seen the ball move a helluva lot more in other games and be called a TD; yes the ball moved, but he NEVER lost CONTROL of it!

Oh he lost control of it, alright... After he had already gone through what used to be the entire process of a catch. But you have to sign papers stating your intent, and show your visa before the process is completed now.

It's a stupid rule. But given what the BS rules are now, I couldn't understand how he managed to do all the hard parts of making that catch, only to inexplicably let it slip out when he made a relatively soft landing on the ground.

And he never fumbled last week.

First, said it before, as long as we're among the blacksheep among the league with Goodell, "Don't let it come down to the NFL, that's N-F-L, officiating."

Second, some guys with weak @ss effort, no matter fault, are just mad mojo and we shouldn't have overpaid for a bad TE when good linebackers and guards were available via FA...

This is definitely not something we've heard from Brees since he's arrived in New Orleans but I can't blame him. Seems like every year he is saying optimistic things about next year but nothing has changed. Defense is always towards the bottom of the league, he seems to be getting hit a lot lately behind this OL and we miss on a lot of our draft picks. We've been 7-9 in 4 of the last 5 seasons. He's frustrated because he knows he doesn't have many more years left and he sees this team for what it is. We're a middle of the pack team that barring a big turnaround doesn't look like a team on the up.

I'm glad Brees finally dropped his guard and said it, rather than the usual coach/teamspeak and pretending the elephant in the room ain't there.

AllSaints · 01-01-2017, 09:49 PM

Don't blame him.... getting tired of saying it myself....

blackangold · 01-01-2017, 10:05 PM

Nice to see him not being so PC... hate the PC culture.
Bree's deserves better, expect some big changes this off season. I don't see both Payton and Brees back, one or the other but not both.
