In all seriousness, has Drew's time come and gone?

I'm just observing all of these up and coming QB's around the league(Wilson, Stafford, etc.) going into postseason play and I can't help but think yes.

Even when Drew did have some pass protection this year, he just didn't seem to have that same zip on the ball or shuffling in the pocket as in years past.

Let's see him with better o line play.

ETA: I didn't even read your whole post. Good lord you're dumb.

The league has a shortage of great QB's. We should continue to remain damn happy with Drew for now.

Det isn't going to the postseason because of Stafford. He regressed a ton this year.

Nah, he's still better than 85% of the QBs in the league.

And when the O line plays worth a shite he's better than 95%.

No. Although it seemed he didn't go through progressions this year like in years past. Left a lot of guys open. Seemed like he had time too just locked on way too much this year. Maybe the line had him scared.

We need to turn the team into a defensive monster with a great running game. Drew can just be a great game manager.. need to go the Elway route.

Led the league in back breaking INTs this year ("Delhommes" as the brilliant Bill Simmons calls them).

What? Look at the Pitt game and the difference after their NT went down

He was one of the most pressured qbs but had an incredibly low sack % BC he avoided pressure so well

The ESPN Total QB Rating for this season has it about right. At worst, you could argue that he is 12th and at best, 5th.

Still top 5 to 12 QB out of 32. Not what he once was but still among the best.

That makes him top 5.

After this year's performance, is Brees still top 5? I feel like it's more debatable than it's ever been

What a dumbass. It goes beyond this stupid QBR shite in determining who's a better qb. The fact that Romo is #1 tells you everything you need to know.
