re: Terry Bradshaw Rips Brees & Saints

Going back to last season, it seems like the breaking records has become the primary goal.

On that 7 game winning streak where we were beating the shite out of everyone?

Either way I'm inclined to agree with Bradshaw, who cares about personal records if you're holding a Lombardi Trophy at the end of the year?

It makes my arse sick to say this, but could you imagine asking Saban about a passing record for his 1-4 QB? He shove the mic down the throat of the reporter who asked the question. All he cares about is winning

I see what you are saying kind of, and agree about Brady. I think the best comparison is Favre with the Jets. The need to preserve his streak at any means backfired and he played horribly at times, and was blamed for the Jets not making the post season with his poor play.

If the Saints were losing because of Brees, rather than an awful defense and anemic running game, and Brees was churning out INTs and playing poorly, that would be more appropriate. But the Saints are a passing team first and foremost. It's our strength and the reason we have excelled in the last several years. The Saints haven't been passing any more the usual or changing up the offense to accomodate Brees's streak.
