I can't believe some people. What do you want from NBC Sports anyway.

The guy on the right opinion stinks. We all have watched Drew Brees over the years. What is your opinion? I posted my response in the comments and yes that is a picture of me from 10 years ago. LOL



My Comments...
Having watched every game Drew Brees has played as a Saint, I post this. Both of you make great points, but consider this... for too many years Drew played with a team that never had an All Pro WR or RB or a defense rated higher than #28. He carried the whole freaking team. He had 5 seasons passing for more than 5000 yards and 7 seasons with more than 4000 yards. He avoided the rush and make average WRs and TEs look great. Despite this the Saints are always a TOP 5 NFL offense. Why? Brees throws the BEST CATCHABLE PASSES EVERYWHERE ON THE FIELD. This has led to a 68.3% completion percentage with the Saints. And he did this all without the strongest arm or being tall enough by NFL standards or being able to run away from NFL pass rushers. Drew is past INCREDIBLE at EVERYTHING he does. HE IS JUST GREAT AT EVERYTHING THAT IS REQUIRED TO BE A GREAT NFL QB. If anything, this should make him even better than the other QBs with greater NFL player standards. Despite all of his perceived shortcomings, he will soon break and own every NFL record besides INTs.

For years the Saints had an extremely bad defense rated between #28-#32. They didn't stop other teams running or passing games or force turnovers. They sucked on a grand scale. I never heard Drew Brees bit.ch or moan once or even saw it in his face once. He was never the problem but always was the solution. Every game he just showed up and inspired the whole team. This led to an outstanding career with 5 seasons passing for over 5000 and 7 over 4000 yards... an NFL record that should last for years.

Had Drew had a defense rated under #15 which forced some turnovers he would have been in the Superbowl many times just like Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Terry Bradshaw, Jim Kelly and John Elway.

While this topic will always be debated and a personal opinion, I think both Drew Brees and Tom Brady are tied as the two best QBs to ever play in the NFL and Brady gets the nod because of his Superbowl titles. Sorry Joe Montana... You were the best... were. Peyton Manning? GTFOH I'm not sure if he should be in the top 5.

And what about Terry Bradshaw... he has carried Fox NFL for years and won 4 Superbowls too!
Love you Terry. LOL
