Probably just hurts as hell to throw deep with his past shoulder injury. Old wounds will always come back to bite u as u age Brees is no different .scar tissue is a major issue with pain.

I never heard nor read that he has experienced any pain from that shoulder since the successful surgery. It is a fairly minor procedure to clean up scar tissue these days if it indeed an issue. I tend to doubt it is.

This is my opinion and not a reason. The guy really never had a gun anyway. But could throw deep to keep defenses (honest) per say. He’s toast on the deep ball imo. Look I’m a drew believer, we have our best shot with him, but when he’s gone this offense will open up even more. And AG what happened in the playoffs when MT little button hooks and crossing routes were nonexistent, not MTs fault it was part oline and Drew’s that can’t outrun a three legged tortoise . It would have been a different outcome if drew could sprint right or left with pressure up the middle ala russel Wilson . Just saying my friend.

What makes you think the offense will open up even more? I expect a step back and possibly years to have a chance at the firepower we have had and still have today. Currently there are 21 NFL teams lagging behind the Saints in total offense per game. QB's of Brees' abilities do not grow on trees.

Do you believe for one second that if Taysom or Winston were in fact a better option than Brees that this Owner Head Coach Offensive Coordinator or players on the offense would not be demanding a change.

I suspect we will find out all to soon what “Life After Brees” will look like, not necessarily bad but you just don’t replace plug and play this level of QB.

You wouldn't, injuries are listed but aches and pains are never covered.

Scar tissue isn't the only issue that can make shoulders troublesome. I have tendonitis in both rotator cuffs and the slightest inflammation causes impingement and will prevent you from getting much sleep until it subsides, especially if you are not a back sleeper. Its a dull constant ache that has nothing to clean out or repair, if you lift your arm too high the dull pain can be sharp.

I found two things greatly effected my tendonitis, pressure changes due to weather and flying because of the pressure changes involved there. In my 5 years of traveling back and forth to Africa, I generally ate 12-16 ibuprofen a day.

Oh, I know aches and pains. I had basically the same injury as Brees and the surgeon, team surgeon for Louisiana Tech at the time) said if I was younger and was dependent upon it for my living (he mentioned pitcher or QB) he would have done surgery. I also had basically the equivalent surgery done on my knee 25 years ago and have had no issues with it ever since. Everyone heals differently. It is very realistic that Brees has no lingering pain from the shoulder. Look how quickly he recovered from the thumb surgery. He clearly has the metabolism required for recovery.

You are focused on the injury and it doesn't always take injury to cause pain, discomfort, or a reduction in performance.

I have absolutely abused my body most of my life, baseball (10 years of catcher), football, military.. Knees and hips are fine. My Mother played zero sports and has had a knee and hip replaced.

Age is a b1tch.

Tell me about it. 45 years after sports and and a helicopter crash it’s a struggle to get out of bed. But I do it . I have 3 grandsons that need to be coached. Lol
