Drew’s Final Regular Season Game?

ChrisXVI · 01-03-2021, 10:04 AM

Can’t believe this could really be it.

I think so. The last 3 years have not been kind to his body. He plays well enough for just one more year MAYBE but his body can no longer handle it.

Preferably with the Lomabardi in tow. Could you imagine if we go one and done with a loss on Saturday game! With no Alvin, now that’s the life of a 40 year Saint’s fan. But I expect a deep run from this team, truly believe it can happen.

If this is truly the last one, then it's been a hell of a ride man!

Thanks Brees for sometimes being the lone bright spot on this team, for being the constant professional and leader that this franchise required and for making this team relevant again.

I'm not sure how I'll feel if his teammates cost him a Lombardi because they couldn't follow a simple protocol.

Yep. Retire #9. Hang his jersey in the middle of The Superdome. Honor him as the greatest Saint to ever wear the Black and Gold. I give him a hard time and I’m hyper critical of his play because I’m a Saints fan before anything else. But when he hangs it up, I hope he comes back as a coach. I’m hearing Carson Wentz rumors...

I could be completely wrong of course, but I just don’t see him retiring without playing in front of Saints fans again and giving them a chance to give him the send-off he deserves.

I hope the Wentz rumors are just that, rumors . Would rather have Dak. Imagine Dak in this offense with the numbers he’s capable of putting up. Drew and Dak aren’t far off from being the same type of players. Their careers have also gone the same direction. Both coming off injuries from their previous teams who didn’t want you. I’m down.

I believe there is very much to this. Win or lose I can't see Brees wanting this to be his final season for several reasons.

I'd love to have Matt Stafford in this offense, but Detroit as usual have let their star players get beaten up.

A Stafford from four years ago, yes but not him today. He’s a shell of his former self and injury prone now
