I love Brees. Great man. Great leader. HOF career. Will easily go down as the best Saints QB in my lifetime. Could very possibly own the only Saints Super Bowl win, ever. Defended him against the few who thought he should have retired prior to this season. But now, looking forward, I'm just over him as the only way the Saints can win and be competitive. The arm is done. It can only decline further. His salary would cause the team to lose at least two quality players on defense this off season. Also, I'm truly concerned about his health. The play that seriously injured him this year was not brutal by football standards. It's just time.

Agreed, if Drews contract meant we lost someone like Demario Davis I'd be incredibly annoyed.

Actually, Brees is under contract through 2021. IF he retires we take an immediate $22.65 million cap hit in dead money. If he decides to return his contract can be restructured as part of an extension which would free up cap space to help prevent losing key defensive players.

Also, he knows his body much better than any of us. If he isn't concerned about his welfare anymore than any other player then why should we be concerned?

This does not compute. Whether he can throw 20 yards or 50 yards there's no one I'd rather have leading this team. He helped the Saints come from behind against the NFL's golden boy to win the Superbowl and he's the consummate professional leader.

Hill’s completion percentage was 71.1 %• Third game as qb. I would like to see his first 3 games compared to other guys in th game. Either way, I’m alright with him going forward. Huge upside.

Would Taysom have the wherewithal to pirouette after dropping the snap with 11 fractured ribs and a punctured lung to drop a perfect pass to AK41 for a TD in about 3 seconds?

I have not seen Taysom throw any impressive bombs. The one a couple games back Sanders had to back track about 6 yards to catch. Drew has thrown some longer passes with zip this year so he has enough arm to say, put the team in position to win 7 games of 9.

Many folks point to Hill's performance in the playoff Vikings game last year. He completed 1 pass (50 yd gain). He was getting 12.5 yards per play as a runner and receiver.
