There were times in years past when you'd be able to see what kind of game Brees would have because he'd just have that insanely intense look on his face pregame, the defenses never stood a chance - it was normally prior to Monday Night Football games.

The many times the camera is on Drew pregame or during the game this year, there's just kind of like an empty, worried look in his eyes. Thats what it looks like to me anyway.

If it that obvious to you then there should be pictures of it, right? I've not seen anything different in his look - pregame, in game, or postgame. Can you show me examples of what you are talking about? I'm glued to every game with zero distractions ... unless I am at the game. I watch all other games at home alone in my living room with the broadcast on the big screen. My wife watches in one of the other rooms.

It's called google images, Chris. I'm sure you can find it if it happened. But the mind plays tricks. You believe what you want to believe. It would be amazing if you could really read his emotions accurately in a four second camera scan.

I choose to not look for the negative in people. You can always see what you believe it is if you want, but it is unfair. Never read a book by its cover. That isn't a profound saying for nothing, right?

Bet he sits around taking pics of his TV to prove himself right though.

Some people don't see it. I definitely see it. He looks hollow and empty at times rather than his usual laser focus. He doesn't have that same eye of the tiger anymore. It's been a rough year and it's telling on him!:(

I think that most of us see a change in his demeanor. I'm pretty frustrated with the way some of this season has gone for him so I imagine that he's angry and disappointed with how things have gone as well.

Oh well. The Saints have a great record so far so at least they'll probably make the playoffs. Knowing Brees, watching other dudes play QB because he can't will likely drive him to anger and the fire might return.

Re: Drew Brees to IR

Drew has been hurt two times now in two years. And Brady's fine. Maybe Drew isn't as in shape as people think. Working out and eating right is not enough. At his age, his T levels have declined and he needs to get on TRT. Idk how Brady's putting up the points he's doing but either TB's oline is much better or Brady's done something.

Yeah. That's why Brady was able to rack up a whopping 6 points on the Saints last game, huh?

I’m not going to pretend to know what is in his head, I can only speculate based on what he has said and from what I know of people with similar jobs (living on the edge so to speak/high risk).

Im not sure he regrets anything or that any of that matters to him, and hopefully that doesn’t matter to you either. White boys from the south are called ignorant racists from birth, these days with social media’s white privilege BS, it doesn’t even register... No fans in the stands, that is everyone in this league presently and doesn’t speak to Drews performance or lack there of does it? I mean if Archie Manning himself were under center today, the attendance would be the same.

As far as injury... he thought his career was over 15 years ago when his shoulder was injured and I’m willing to bet he mumbled more than once to him self something along the lines of ‘dear Lord, if I can only get back on that field’.

Police, soldiers, boxers, pilots, etc... they are all aware that the next day at work could be their last bit they don’t dwell on it or think about it. They don’t think about going out, they just think about going..

Does anyone think Sugar Ray Leonard was less of a fighter because he lost his last one? Chavez’s latter years? If Farve wouldn’t have sent pictures of his junk he would have been untarnished as well lol. :bng:

For $25MM, you can break all my ribs and call me what ever you like. :)
