I dislike the hate Brees is getting from some people on this board. I rarely ever post on this board but I've been a saints fan since I was 5 and I'm about to be 30. I an tell who has been fans for life and I can tell who hopped on the bandwagon in 2006 by reading this board.

What I want to know is why Brees is getting all of this hate? He's the greatest QB in Saints history an I've seen threads such as trade Brees for Cutler and Marshall. What the frick is that? Some people don't remember the Bobby Herbert, Billy Joe Tolliver, and Billy Joe Hobert eras of Saints football we had to suffer through. Every QB goes through rough stretches in their careers and this is one for Brees. It's not his fault Goodell fricked the organization and had an agenda against the team this year.

All I'm saying is stick by the Our QB through thick and thin because his career will be over before you know it and we'll be back at square one trying to replace a Saints legend when he retires. Appreciate him while he's here.

Most of the hate is by trolls who only show up when the Saints lose.

Drew doesn't play on the kickoff coverage team and he can't stop Colston or Collins from fumbling early on key drives.

He can only do so much and the early mistakes by the rest of the team took us out of the game.

Yeah, 9 picks in 3 games is nothing to worry about.

I'm def not one who's saying get rid of Brees, but we absolutely got to stop putting games in his shoulders anymore. It's absolutely killed us the last 3 games and what has us out of the playoffs now. It's pretty frustrating considering the progress the defense has made from the horrific start they had

Amen brother . Drew Brees won us a Superbowl title. Think about Marino , Kelly , Tarkenton, and Warren Moon . All HofF Qbs who never won an NFL title.

About 50% of the NFL organizations have never enjoyed winning a SB . We have so much to be thankful for in having a wonderful leader in Drew. Let's get ready to roll in 2013.

Drew has playeed poorly this year.

He held out for a bigger contract, knowing the vacancies in the coaching staff. Meanwhile, he found himself several more endorsement deals, while the team was scrambling in camp.

He has likely already played for the contract that he got this offseason, and will (likely)never play at that level again.

He deserves criticism. You cant use the argument that he is the best we have ever had, and should just be thankful. We have never had a QB that we have invested that amount of money in.

I am not trying to hate on the guy, but he has put himself in a position that he deseves criticism.

Exactly.

And you are absolutely right to bash the "Drew Haters". They are idiots.

I give Drew props for being the Greatest Saints Legend of All Time. I can be critical of him and still give him the esteem and respect he deserves.

I could look Drew in the eyes and offer constructive criticism and at the same moment tell him he's the best that the Saints have ever had.

I love the guy. I hope he's part of another SB Champion Saints team, but, I would tell him to his face that the window is closing fast.

I root for the TEAM



I don't root for PLAYERS



so while I love Drew he is hurting the team in some games with his reckless play


If you cannot admit that then you are not a fan of the Saints. You are a fan of one particular player....which is foul foul foul
