Brees breaks NFL single season completion record


Jmac

Recommended Posts

72% completion rate for 2017. We will need our Dline to put him on his ass and get him moving around big time. Our secondary certainly can't carry the load. Between the improved running game and Brees, it's a handful.

Have to give the dude credit...hate him or not, he is some QB and one of the best ever. Wilks better be doing his homework. The offense needs to control T.O.P also....fingers crossed.

Lol and this wasn’t even Brees best year by any stretch.

Shows you what happens when you have a smaller sample size throwing and asked to make shorter and easier throws with a guy like Brees.

Completion percentage =/= accuracy.

Either way, Brees still is one of the best in the game.

I hate that the Chargers let the Aints get Brees but I'll be damned if he isn't one of the best to ever play the game. If I didn't hate the Aints so much, it would've really been a shame to see them wasting his career the past several years and I'd be happy for him this year. But fug them, let's knock them out early.

Completion percentages doesn’t matter  those are just stats and are meaningless:eyeroll:

meh.  Brees is still good.  He isn't as dominant as he use to be.    

I mean he just broke what...Sam freaking Bradford's record?  Did that make Bradford good? Brees had the least production he has ever had in over a decade.

No comparison. Brees has been great his all career after S.D. Bradford is Bradford. I hate the little bastard for what he does to us, but i won't deny him his props.

My only point is hyper focusing on competition percentage leaves a lot out. Which is why I brought up Bradford or you could use Cam for the other side of that coin. 

Brees is still good.  I don’t find him as scary as he was a few years ago

I dunno know about that. If I am not mistaken he lead the NFL in Yard per Attempt this year for the first time in his career (Or at least he was a couple of weeks ago).

    • Here is what it said about him coming out of college: Overview A three-year starter with good feet and technique, Samac could be in consideration for a move-blocking rushing attack. He is strong at the point of attack but will have limitations against NFL power. He operates with good hand placement and nimble feet and is a demon once he’s on the move as a pulling center leading the way. He’s fluid and agile in the run game, but those traits fail to do as much for him in protection. Samac punches with inside hands but can struggle to widen his protection base in order to protect his edges. He has eventual starting talent as a run blocker but needs to add more mass and improve in pass protection to get there.
    • Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games. 
    • I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)
