He'll probably want Brees to keep padding his Hall of Fame resume' instead. Just saying ...

^^^^
This!

What Brady does will be a factor in whatever Brees does. I believe that completely. To think it has no bearing on his decision is short-sighted.

DB#9 is unequivocally a first ballot HOF’er..., but he’s no LiMu Emu..., nor is he a Motaur.

I’m sold on this being Brees’ last year, so I think we’ll see a whole lot of him in 2021. I hold my breath every time Brees drops back now. I used to have so much confidence and faith in him. It’s almost all gone.

You are assuming the front office is thinking what you are thinking. They may not be sold on it being Brees' last year and have Winston on the same deal that Teddy had ... a one year insurance policy only.

I think this is Brees last year whether he likes it or not. I would like it to be an amicable departure with him retiring but if he wants to chase records next year he can do it on another team. His contract is going to be an issue if he doesn't hang em up though Saints might get stuck. We let Teddy walk, cool, I don't want to see that happen with Jameis. We have the luxury of having a starting NFL QB as a backup. Jameis got lasik surgery doubt he throws as many picks as last year lol, and he can PUSH THE BALL DOWNFIELD.

Brees is done. This season will be his last. He's as fit as anyone can be and he works as hard as anyone in the NFL. But, when your arm strength goes, it's over. Please no to Winston moving forward.

remember when everyone called teddy checkdown teddy and then you realized that was because Brees is done and SP didn't want to make it clear for all the fans. Brees is now an embarrassment in real life and on the field, apparently by his stats.

Yeah, I’m not buying this load spkb. DB#9 is not an embarrassment, on or off the field. His recents comments about the Flag May have alienated some of his jersey owning fans, but it wouldn’t surprise me if that has been offset with other demographics. Regardless, he is simply an aging QB, it’s tough to watch, but he isn’t an embarrassment, at all. As far as his stats go, more ppl have walked on the moon compared to the number of ppl who are in his category of statistical records he owns.

His comments were him tucking his tail between his legs. It is pathetic, and so is he. I dont watch or keep up other than to share in the joy of their losing, but his numbers are pathetic.

18-30 160 yards 2 td
26-38 312 1td, 1int

Am I supposed to be impressed? Or when another player on your team tells you to STFU and you not only comply, but start pretending a man accused of stealing a woman's keys and penetrating her vaginally are somehow a national hero, youre beyond pathetic. And Drew Brees is beyond pathetic, now it just happens to also be on the field.

If he had come out in support of that originally I would disagree with him. Instead he reversed himself and lied out of fear. Theres nothing more pathetic.

13-3 the last couple of years. He had a career year...there aren't many records that he hasn't broken already. He'll break a few more this year as well. He's done it almost every week. Although, to be honest some of records were already his.

Folks I was still playing top notch Old Boy rugby at his age and can spot athletic aging athletes. Drew is one of them. I know his skills are still there and he can deliver when he gets his timing down. It takes just a little longer to get into a groove when you are older. Cam, Jenkins, Jack Rabbit, Sanders, and Cook have all had slow starts. Give it time. When they get their rusty timing down the games will look much cleaner and crisper.

Drew keeps his body in great shape and studies his opponents to find his weakness so that he can exploit it. Drew will get better. Bet on it! It just might be his last year but he's going out with style, the Drew Brees way! :bng:

Drew even looks different. Like he has no enthusiasm and just going through the motions. It’s odd plus he has a look of fear at times

I hope so. I can predict every play nowadays and Brees has lost his confidence. At some point age does catch up with you.

I agree. Based on the first 3 games Drew is looking like a replacement-level QB. I don't see the impressive accuracy or dissection of defenses. It feels like his performance ceiling has lowered. There's still time though and I hope I'm wrong.

What did you see based upon the fourth game?

Replacement level QB? Replacement for 3/4th's of the current starting QB's in the league today for sure. But, I'm sure we can find better, right? Yup. Brees is only completing 71.3% of his passes this season. He's only had 16 seasons with a lower completion percentage. Yup. That accuracy sucks based upon this extended 2020 sample.

Ya' think? And, relax, I think you may be in error.

:D

Wanna make Brees more effective?

Run the D*mn Ball!

More. And this is why...

IF this is Brees last year, I'm not worried. All the hype is for Lawrence, but this is a sneaky good draft for QB's. BYU Zach Wilson seems special and I'd love to see Payton coach him up.
