Probably due to his controversial political opinions and his attempt to ruin the famous reputation of New Orleans cuisine, many take for granted that we have a top 3 NFL QB. With Drew under center, the offense will always be very good. I truly believe that the height issue and the fact that he's balding has always kept him out of "GOAT talks." The only thing that separates Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees in media talks are the fact that Rodgers has a full head of hair and is a feminist.


While Drew has been so great over the years, he hasn't been as consistent as he was during the 2009-2013 glory days. Some would argue that he throws too many interceptions. I would argue that a shitty defense and lack of a consistent running game force the guy to try and do too much sometimes. When trying to keep up with their record setting defense, the Saints are pretty much forced to start chucking it, putting all the pressure on Drew. DE's can pin their ears back and DB's are sitting back waiting for Drew's next attempt to keep the Saints in the game.


Looking at Drew's worst games last year, see how poor the running game was

NYG: 29/44 263 yards, 6 yards per attempt, 1 TD, 0 INT, 89 QB rating
13 rushes 41 yards, 3.2 YPC

SD: 22/36 207 yards, 5.8 yards per attempt, 2 TD, 2 INT, 74.7 QB rating
34 carries for 83 yards, 3.4 YPC

DET: 31/44 326 yards, 7.4 yards per attempt, 0 TD, 3 INT 63 QB rating
12 carries for 50 yards, 4.2 YPC

TB: 25/41 263 yards, 6.3 yards per attempt, 0 TD, 3 INT 48.5 QB rating
16 carries for 46 yards, 2.9 YPC

Beefing up the OL (healthy Tyrone Armstead, Ramczyk for depth, and Warford (16th best run blocker in the NFL)), adding AD, and adding a RB who can pick up 3 and 7's with safe reads will take a TON of pressure off Brees. We will see the lowest number of INT's in his Saints career.

Drew Brees 2017 PREDICTION: 5,144 yards on 8.3 ypa, 35 TD's, 10 INT's
QB rating of 114.9

I noticed that Brees picked up a couple MPH in the dude perfect video, an added bonus and shows that he can still sling it, even at 38


I think Brees is a top 10 (maybe top 5) QB of all time, but I'm not going to lie and say there weren't times over the last few years where I wasn't thinking, "Drew, wtf was that?" He can't do it all by himself, and I don't think he will have to this year.

Here's to the GOAT having his best year since 2011






A memorable Drew dime

Drew, a big fan of the 2nd amendment!

So underrated by the national media. I saw an article about 2-3 years ago that didn't even rank him in the top 50 QB's of all time.

It's a shame we only have a few years left with this guy. He's truly amazing.

That opening paragraph is great. As usual, your hype threads are good. Well done breauxmo.

Yeah and I somehow managed to go to these two games last year, I thought both games were going to be shoot out games. Received the exact opposite.

Yep even more amazing our defense has been as bad as it has been. Even last year with special teams.

With a mid range 16-20 defense we win 10-12 games a year with DB.

I don't think I'll ever fully get over 2011.

I hate to put it like this because it's been a hell of a run either way, but I feel like if we don't get another ring while he's here we've underachieved.

8 People downvoted a Brees Hype thread? All you people here that are anti Brees amaze me. He is the best Saints player of all time and it isn't even close. You should pray every night that we don't lose him because without him we are a dumpster fire!

Those throws vs GB and Buffalo.


Another one that comes to mind is 2011 vs Chicago. That lass to Devery Henderson was ridiculous. As usual, Joe Buck gives a lame call for it. LINK

Underrated is right. It's shocking how many people don't realize that, in all likelihood, Drew Brees will retire as the NFL's all-time leader in passing yards, passing touchdowns, and completion percentage.

the chicago pass is another great dime. There are so many that were so great you can remember like it was yesterday. Giphy only has so much storage space
