Drew Brees says his thumb is getting stronger every day

Via Garland Gillen of WVUE-TV, Brees said that he can now brush his teeth, floss his teeth, and pick up a glass of water. Brees added that he couldn’t do those things only a few days ago.

He'll heal quicker than most but there is still a choke point. Trying to do too much can have the reverse effect. Small gains, heal, small gains, heal. It's still going to be a while. 5 -6 weeks minimum.

Good thing for Drew's hand that he is married...

Kermit couldn't close the deal with Ms Piggy.

Does anybody think Ms Piggy looks like Hillary Clinton?

I'm starting to think he'll be back against Jville.

That's 4 1/2 weeks, roughly 10 days ahead of schedule.

The Saints are going to have to protect Brees from himself. Go the full time until the bye and come back for the division stretch starting with the Clowns on November 10th.

That is what I was thinking also. Divisional games are what truly matter. Give him the extra week from the bye and come back blasting! The last thing we need is for him to rush back and re-injure his thumb.

It was cool seeing him continuous rehab on the sideline. Can you imagine if we had this defense with ANY other offense we have fielded in the past under Payton?

Thank you baby Jesus! We cant continue much longer on the backs of our defense. The only good thing that came of this is we now know TB is not the future.
