re: Drew Brees #6 in Jaws QB countdown.

My point is he is a product of the modern NFL and that if he started playing 10/20/30/40 years earlier than he did, his career percentage would be horseshite.

So, by your demented logic, all modern quarterbacks would have shittier career percentages if they played 40 years ago (or a whopping decade ago..but for someone like you who hasn't reached a full 2 decades, that probably seems like a long time). Guess that applies to Matty Ice, as well. Brilliant!

So what do you think about the fact that Matt Ryan is not only a more accurate passer than your boy, but an overall better quarterback as well?

What are you laughing about? Matt Ryan has the higher completion %, the higher QBR, the higher QB rating, and a higher AV (tied for 4th in the league).

I'll quote you on this one:

You posted one year. Check his entire career scrub.

Meant to say right now. Right now, Ryan and Flacco > Brees (along with Rodgers, Manning, and Brady).

A former NFL qb agrees with me, outside of fellow Saintards, who you got?

Don't worry playboy, I'm sure he will soon refute you with his new stat, Total Passing Percentage.

He has one of the shortest downfield throwing averages in history.

I misquoted you. I'm sure you'll argue semantics now.

Point being, you provided no stats or facts when you made that statement.

And before you say I only provided one year and not his career numbers:

You can click through the years and see his Air YPA. Saints years he's mostly in the top-15. Chargers years are far lower. I'm not going through each season and averaging it out to get his career numbers, but it's pretty clear he would not have

You sound really fricking stupid.


Flacco had an incredible post season, all-time great post-season at that, and he has won playoff games. However, Brees has been outstanding in postseason play as well. Brees however has been MUCH better in the regular season than Flacco, including this past season, which was a fluke year for the Saints. Flacco has also been apart of teams with very good defenses, cannot say the same for Brees.

Matt Ryan had a good season, but in comparison to Brees' it really wasn't much better than his at all when you look at overall statistics. Brees had a lower completion percentage and a higher interception total due to the fact that there lacked fluid play-calling. Brees is one of the most accurate passers of all time, and likely would have been at around a 67% comp. rate or higher this year with Payton. The team was lost all year after going through unprescedented punishments that destroyed their high level of play and continuity. It hurt Brees and the entire team not having Payton there, and you can't say otherwise. Just the season before, Brees and the Saints had arguably the greatest offense of all time, of all time. I don't even need to get into comparing Ryan and Brees as far as postseason because that is a fricking joke.

Ryan and Flacco are both very good, but not to the level of Brees. Will they get there? Maybe, but they aren't yet. If you want to place Manning, Brady and Rodgers ahead of Brees, go for it, but placing Flacco and Ryan ahead of him is Leo from What's Eating Gilbert Grape on the retard spectrum.

Brees > Ryan/Flacco and he will continue to show that this season. If not for being a broke college student I'd take your stupid bet of 1k that the Saints make the playoffs too. You act like they are done when they have damn near the entire offense intact that was apart of the best offense ever. The defense will be OK, and that's all they need. The Saints will be right back in the mix. I just hope you return to eat some crow.

But you agree, that he makes a living off of volume passing, no?
