I think he will absolutely be a successful head coach one day. Possesses the fire to motivate, the knowledge of the game, and is respected by his peers.

What say you?

why coach when he can be in the broadcasting booth?

Job security, good pay, no long hours.

Very seldom to very successful athletes make successful coaches. It seems they can't understand that what they could do so well , other atletes can't do as well. Either the coach was an incredible athlete and everything came easily or were ultra dedicated and the present athlete will seldom be as dedicated.

Examples are Norm Van Brocklin, Otto Graham, Tom Fears, Bart Starr, Forrest Gregg (at least HE made a Super Bowl, Larry Bird, Isiah Thomas. Among the few successes are Tom Heinsohn, Joe Torre, Yogi Berra and Mike Ditka (debatable how good a coach he was).

Would think he would have to have SOME kind of political aspirations and to date, don't think there's been any.

Opinion or please provide link or some sort of evidence of this. I had heard "rumors" to the effect that she didn't "approve" of him being a pro athlete or something along those lines. Course, I can't substantiate that with any FACT similar to the above hypothesis.

Drew Brees and his mother have had a volatile relationship for years. In 2006, Brees asked his mother to stop using his image in television commercials for her candidacy of a Texas appeals court seat. Prior to this, Brees called his relationship with his mother "nonexistent" after a falling out due to his refusal of her attempt at becoming his agent
