Of course he is still hurt, a fool would think otherwise. I am sure Drew himself wouldn’t tell anyone that aside from his wife. It’s his last shot to play against the guy that’s going to break all of his records. My best guess, Brees is around 80-90%.

I fractured 4 ribs wrestling in my 20s and it took me 6 weeks to be 100%. I’m no Drew Brees, but he isn’t a 20 year old either.

All that said, he gives us a 10x better chance than any other QB we have.

I pointed this out earlier ... only a fool would not realize that virtually every player in the NFL is at no better than 80-90% by week 15 of the season. I know you realize that fact, right? He will have had five full weeks of rest from the second set of injuries and six weeks from the previous ones. At this point he may be one of the healthiest players on the roster other than Winston who hasn't taken any hits this season hardly.
