So Brees is going to the pro bowl

he should decline.

another meaningless stat added to his stats

one more pro bowl check in that category on the stat sheet, plus they only play touch football and a volleyball game now so why not go, its just a dog and pony show anyway and everyone sees it as a farse

As he should

He was 70% and over 5k easily with 37 tds and like 101+ rating

Drew Brees’ Pro Bowl snub is rectified

Saints quarterback Drew Brees should have made it to the Pro Bowl as part of the original roster. He didn’t. He now has.

The team has announced that Brees will replace Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan in the Pro Bowl. Ryan has a date with a slightly bigger game in Houston one week later.

It will be the 10th trip to the Pro Bowl for Brees and his ninth with the Saints. He generated more than 5,200 passing yards in 2017, the fifth time in his career he has broken that barrier. (There have been only four other 5,000-yard seasons in league history.) Brees also set an NFL record with 471 completions.

Brees has been performing at a high level for so long that his talents often get taken for granted. In a league that doesn’t have nearly enough great quarterbacks, the quarterback who recently turned 38 definitely will be missed when he’s gone.

The other NFC Pro Bowl quarterbacks are Kirk Cousins (who has replaced Aaron Rodgers) and Dak Prescott.

Drew Brees is a walking living legend. His stats are pretty insane, and he’s consistently performing at a high level year after year. I hope he plays for at least another 5 years cause he’s a joy to watch.

Drew is the best of the best. He is often ignored because the SAINTS haven’t been relevant the past couple of years. But he just keeps on rolling up stats and breaking NFL records…..

Anybody can go. I'm sure he gets free tickets!

He might as well go. He's been the whole team for many years now. There are no other stars on this team.
