I think I remember him saying something about wanting his children all to old enough to get to see him play and be able to understand what is going on. That would take another five years, at least. I think that's probably where his wanting to play well into his forties comes from. And don't forget, Brees is all about family. Another reason why he wants to retire as a Saint when he does hang it up. I really can't see him uprooting his four kids who have all lived their entire lives in New Orleans and moving them to some strange city. It ain't going to happen.

No one wants to miss out on the next Hall of Fame QB. It causes desperation.

Unless you already have one as your starter.

Shouldn't that read "Matt Cassel 2.EAUX"?

Honestly Brees could retire next year and I wouldn't care as long as someone just as good or had just as high of a ceiling stepped in. Meaning if Drews play dropped off I would happily see him walk for a younger player that performs at the same level of that drop off but shows potential. I want Super Bowls. Not how long our favorite player can play bowls.

But that's the whole point. Finding someone as good as Brees or having as high a ceiling may take another 25 years. If it was that easy every team would have one. As it stands right now, at most only 3 or 4 have one. Brees is, and most likely will remain, our only hope at ever winning another Super Bowl.

B.S. within 2-3 years drews play will drop off to where he is an average to good QB. You find someone equally as average or good who is younger with an upside. No point in keeping Brees around if he is performing at an average level.

People have been saying his play was about to drop off for the past four years. If he says he can play at a high level well into his forties I am far more inclined to believe him than you. And even a Brees 70% of what he is today would be better than anyone available. Right now half the teams in the league would kill for an average NFL QB. Two thirds would kill for a QB 70% of what Brees is today. You seem to think it will be no problem finding a replacement for Brees.

What makes you think in 2-3 years Drew will be average?

Hell; look at Favre... He wasn't average at 40, except for throwing bone-headed interceptions but he always did that...

Do you think Brady will be average in 2-3 years?
