How many had Drew made it to 5 years into his career? How many MVPs had he won?

A little perspective on this statement:

I don't think it really qualifies as running out of town if Brees contract was up after the season and was facing rehab for a serious injury.

It certainly isn't being run out of town if they have the #4 overall pick with a 40.5 million dollar contract on the bench. That's just common sense (especially in a league with a salary cap).

I mean, at that point, Philip Rivers had been paid $17,000,000+ for only 30 attempted passes. And with the base salary scheduled to increase after the next year, they had to see if that investment was worth the increasing costs.

In cams defense (although it's not much of one) it does sort of look like he tries to kick the ball away from the defender. At any rate he should have gotten on the ground.


So he was going to cheat seeing as that is illegal to justify him being a pu$$y?

Yeah I kind of feel like something like this happened - it just doesn't make sense - it's not like he was scared. He may have been frustrated tho


He eventually slowly knelt down once it had basically been recovered. He was trying to save face when he realize what a chicken he proved himself to be.

Just stop already!

Drew Brees is a Hall of Fame QB. It's not even debatable.

This was the biggest game in Cam's young career and he shite the bed. He will learn from it though.

Here's the perspective:

He's one of the biggest and physically gifted athletes to ever play the QB position, but he's too much of a scared bitch to fall on a FB to save his super bowl chances when it mattered most.

He shite the bed a little once the game was already over/after the game. Played fine during it.

Your opinion is shared by only the most fanatical of the Cam Newton fans that currently exist.

Completely Irrelevant.

You sure want badly for saints fans to hate Newton for owning the Saints but he has far from owned the Saints. He's .500 against us when we have our coach. Nobody feels threatened by Cam any more than any other QB on the schedule. He might have good games against us from time to time but what QB doesn't against the Saints D?

It's funny that you can see Von Miller being held in that three second gif. I swear they held him every fricking play.

It's really weird because he does eventually dive for it.


He lowered himself to a knee clear of any bodies. That's not diving.

Cam has taken and delivered more hits in 5 years than Drew has in 15 or however long he's been stat accumulating.


So you're saying Drew is much more intelligent than Scam? I would totally agree with that.
