Well, you tried to frame something I said as being something else entirely. That kind of aggravated me.

It's all good, though. Let's move on.

My question is, does he really have to "live" in the training room for his thumb? Thank God it wasn't his leg.

Come back when you're 100% no need to risk it.

He is planning on being 100% by week eight.

Week 10 is perfect. Gives Brees two weeks to practice with the team and install a game plan

He will have been practicing for over two weeks by week eight. That is the purpose of the procedure he had done. The internal brace allows return to full practice over the final couple of weeks of the healing process.

Yeah read it had been done in NBA and he was first to do it here. Typical Drew. If he is 100 then we go with him. I'd expect him back against Cards.

I wouldn't be opposed to a week eight return. Brees comes back to face a cupcake defense followed with a bye week. Then it's division games

His welcomed return will be a second-wind for the offense...

We'll likely see playmaker Taysom Hill more with Bridgewater returning to the sidelines...

And maybe Brees can get more out of FA TE Jared Cook who, only recently, has started to show up, particularly in the red-zone...

Don't believe the Arizona game will be the cake walk for Brees to re-acclimate as the Cardinals will also be getting some key personnel back on defense...

But in an odd way Brees' Return will be a well-timed second wind, or brees...

When HE is ready HE will be back not a day before that. After the team that did the surgery signs off, the Saints staff signs off and most importantly Brees says he’s ready.

I am thankful for TB but his play yesterday’s against a good defense then add in his Dallas performance the bloom might be off a starting role for teams looking for a starting QB next year.

Blessed to have him as our backup but case can be made that without one the best defenses in the league, TB’s record souls be 1-3 at BEST.
