Drew wants to win and if the franchise didn't make the necessary moves then Drew could leave and go to a contender with his current contract. We are a more complete team with a chance to get to the playoffs again. I think he stays and retires a Saint which is what he really wants.

That is exactly what he expressed in the one on one interview with Jimmy Johnson on the FOX pre-game and added that he plans to also play for several more years. It all came up when Johnson asked about any contract negotiations. Brees said there are none because he wanted to wait, but said it will get done for sure.

No. He wants to win, but he wants to remain a Saint more. And the Saints have just as good a chance of winning it all this year and into the future as any team. As he has repeated over and over again, he will definitely play several more years and they will all be with the Saints. What is a contender anyway? Nobody knows what real chance any team has going into a season. All kinds of things could happen. Leaving a team with whom you already have chemistry to go elsewhere makes zero sense if the only reason is wanting to win.

You said you would bet on it and then disappeared when I tried to hold you to it. Are you still willing to make that bet? I'll make it easy on you. $20 cash. We'll each send it to someone we both trust here on the board. That person then can send the $40 (less postage costs) to the winner ... you if Brees begins the 2018 season on a different NFL roster than the Saints or me if he doesn't start the 2018 season on a different NFL roster than the Saints.

Well?

I told you I'll take that bet. Obviously you were to focused on finding fault with everyone else to notice. I said if we have another losing season he will be gone. We make it to the playoffs he will stay. Ill admit it is starting to look like we may actually come out above 500 and possibly get a wild card. I'll take the bet anyway. No middle man, I'll PayPal it straight to you. We will see who pays the piper.
And how you equate believing Brees will leave to wanting Brees to leave is beyond me.

Drew isn't going anywhere, regardless of our record.

What's the bet? I'd like to get in on this action. Now, I'm not a betting man by any stretch, but this is as near a sure thing as I can imagine.

Look Drew is comfortable here. He's comfortable with the players and with the coaches and the Saints don't have anyone qualified to replace him, and even if they draft the next Drew Brees they're not turning it over to a rookie. They'll pay him well, for probably 3 more years is my guess.

But he'll be here next year. That's no 'guess'. I want in. What's the bet?

It's $20 bucks but I'm not gonna get into the entire board for 20 bucks each.

No. You have already crawfished big time. You guaranteed that Brees would be on another NFL roster beginning next season at the start of 2018. No conditions. I told you I'd take that bet. That's when I told you I'd take that bet. None of this make the playoff or not bull. That was after the first two games. If you are still willing to do what you said then I'll go that $20 with you.

Original bet offer

My reply:
You are stating that Drew Brees will definitely sign with someone other than the Saints next year, right? Care to place a wager on that?
