Saints QB Drew Brees reveals he's returning to practice and hopes to play vs. Cardinals

Lately I can’t help but think about something... would we have won these last five games if Brees wasn’t injured? I know it sounds crazy, and I don’t mean it as a slight to Brees in any way, but you never know how differently things could have shaken out. Would the defense have stepped up the way they have if Brees was there to bail the team out? We’ll never know.

I can see where you are coming from, and I cannot disagree again. Sometimes thing just happen to work out.

I agree totally. The one thing Teddy has done well so far is protect the ball. Drew has had seasons and games where his INT’s have dug us in holes.
I go back to the Dallas game last season, does Teddy throw that pick to end the game. He’s done a good job so far not giving opponents additional opportunities.

I like TB and I wouldn't care if we signed him long term but if I can have Brees 3 or 4 more more years its not even a choice IMO.

Totally agree. And what many do not realize is that Brees' importance to our success far exceeds his play on the field. He is a vital emotional element to our success. Anyone hoping to move on from Brees before he decides to move on himself is delusional.

It’s not just teddy teddy teddy how bout some props for the O-line that finally got it together, a super bowl defense to boot. Teddy will get his pay day with another team. Sorry , drew and Payton are joined at the hip. The chargers are on my list where he could land. Another crustee ole man there. What about New England if egor gives it up this year. They love dealing #1s we won’t trade him in the division . The titans . Just saying. We can’t hold him at 7 mill a year he wants to play and earn.

We have teddy on a one year rental. He'll be playing elsewhere next year I would imagine. Drew is still the future.
