If the team was stacked on offense i could see him coming back but with the way it is now i see why he turned it down.

Didn’t want his helmet to mess up his hair.

The right Saints QB to bring back.

Why is this a shock? He said his arm wasn't in shape months ago. Plus this situation is less than ideal.

Would he be allowed to wear a Jacob Blake sticker on his helmet if he comes back?

Asking for a friend with hair plugs and a face birthmark.

He didn’t come back…. Yet. He’s training and working that arm back. He comes back the last week of the season and bring the saints to the playoffs and Super Bowl.

A man can dream, right?

We weren’t willing to promise him the starter role over Taysom, Book, and Simian?


I’m embarrassed for the Saints if they tried to get someone like Brees or Rivers to come out of retirement to be a backup.

I can guarantee you that Brees is in playing condition if he were to come back. Even in retirement he trains like a madman. I’d love to see it but Monday night would just be too soon I think. We will have to ride with Book but after that if he wanted to I think Drew could do it. We don’t have receivers that can get deep anyway. On the bright side I really think Book is going to surprise some people. He’s going to make some mistakes but he’s also a very gritty player that will keep the Saints in the game.

zero reason to believe Drew has something in the tank that he didn't have while still playing in his last regular season.

Do y’all think he said he wanted to start and CSP said no?

It’s pretty crushing that he wouldn’t come back if offered the start on Monday night in a packed dome.

Rivers doesn’t know the system. The verbiage. I kind of think Brees does.

I mean this would’ve been perfect. That game last year never really felt like the end.

It's crushing if you're dumb. He might not want to get blasted by a defender again or he understands he'll probably look terrible playing on a few days notice a year removed from his last practice and he probably doesn't want to look terrible.

I would have thought they asked to return to put on his jacob Blake helmet and kneel every snap

Too late he has looked pretty terrible in a few starts the last 3 seasons with practice, training camp and all
