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).

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
