It's obvious Brees had lost a step. He can't get downfield more than 20 yards and his accuracy is starting to go.

You obviously forgot the SARC flag...

He's not being sarcastic. He actually believes this. He was claiming that Brees has lost his accuracy in a thread last week.

Well, after this week Brees RAISED his passing percentage from 68.1% to 69.1%, which is fourth (4th) in the league and two percentage points above his lifetime percentage that is, by the way, the highest in NFL history. He is also ranked fourth (4th) in the NFL for passes completed over 20 yards.

Boy you've got your blind hate going today!

Can't handle the success, huh?

And what about that bet that you said you would take with you guaranteeing Brees would be on another NFL roster beginning the 2018 season?

Huh?

You are the only elephant in this room.

Hey, I love the Saints and Brees doesn't get enough love as far as I'm concerned...

And though I'm also a long-time Patriots fan going back to the days of Steve Grogan, Mike Haynes and John Hannah, I've never cared for Brady's personality...

But what Brady did in that comeback against the Falcons in the SuperBowl - that was a bunker, rebar-reinforced cementing argument for GOAT...

To me and many more he will always be the G.O.A.T Drew Brees.

Papa Voodoo · 10-24-2017, 12:03 PM

I still prefer Dan Marino and Joe Montana.

What does it matter? ALL great players.

Does anybody here think Brady is better than Drew?

They're both amazing QBs - teammates, coaches, divisions, weather, tuck rules...so many things combine into the final product.

Tom Brady sucks because he plays for the wrong team. Drew doesn't.

Very simple...

They have their guy, we have ours. Both make every player on the field better. Both have turned has-beens into stars.

With a better defense, Brees' numbers would be much lower, and maybe the rings would be doubled.

I've also felt Brees was more stat-driven. I know Payton ultimately decides who is on the field, but I look at some of the blowouts when Brees was still in. Two I remember are when we were beating the Colts by 50, and the Sun/Mon night game when we were killing Atl, but Brees was still out there throwing.

They were executing their offense. Nothing wrong with that. I wish they would do it more rather than become conservative. Payton learned that from Parcells.

I'm all for that AG, as we have certainly pissed away enough games because we can't sweep the leg.

But I'm talking about being up 55-7 in the 4th and your franchise QB is on the field. or being up 30 points with 3 minutes to go against a hated rival just looking to hit someone, and the $25 million man is throwing a touchdown to Sproles?
