Not to take anything away from Drew's basassness, but we need to remember that a QBs knees are protected. If someone takes a shot at their knees, it will be a flag 90% of the time. No other position has that luxury.

So, Kenny Wilkerson was right all along about this?


Except for the part where KW said Drew was performing bad b/c he was doped up on pain meds.

Wilkerson FAIL.

Saints and Packers both proved that w/o Turner, Ryan is just mediocre.

Why is Heath the only person from the organization that is talking about this?


Really. Have the Saints made this official? I mean I'm all for believing Drew Brees is a hero and all but I'd still like to see something official on this.

He had to say something, he was asked a direct question. What was he going to say? "Yeah, I was really surprised he pussed out."

He also talked about him having microfracture surgery.

Drew did become addicted to throwing interceptions.

nah, those were binge interceptions

Favre 5.3% and Eli 4.6% dabbled with the hard stuff

Brees backing off his 3.3% this year back to his 2.7% career average in '11 (11-14).

I can imagine it would be hard to plant and put pressure on the tear - I imagine it had to hamper his accuracy some - hence inflated Int numbers.

I could have told you it was his MCL without even listening to it
-There's no way in hell he plays the next week with a torn ACL
-If it were his ACL, it would require surgery to fix. MCL= heals by itself, ACL=does not.
