Drew Brees retires!!!!!!!!

[imminent rogaine]

The restructure: I kind of get it and I kind of don’t... that’s fine if it’s voidable but you can’t have the player AND void his contract. You’d have to let him walk or agree on a new contract.

The hell?

It’s a fake numbers to spread out his sign in bonus.  Only like $9M guaranteed over 4 years.

Yeah I just seen that the deal they did for Hill to save them 7.5 mil, like it’s so weird how Saints can do all this sh$t, how?

They keep kicking the ever loving sh*t out of that can down the road...possibly until they have a new coach and front office.

I got the gist but it's still insane.

Damn, wish they would have taught Hurney that trick

My favorite moment of his whole career is when the Panthers batted down his pass during his last attempt of the season to prevent him of reaching some record I forget, but was non stopped talked about at the time.

20 years. One ring. And that's b/c Brett Favre choked. I'm still 100% convinced come July, he will come out of retirement. this piece of poo loves the spotlight. 

You do mean he choked after bounty gate, Adrian Peterson having multiple fumbles and that last high low tackle where he should have been in a wheel chair as Sean Payton said?

[Greatman77]

Good for Drew. He brought New Orleans a Lombardi when the town really needed something positive.

Nah what he really loves is being scammed by low brow jewelers and bitching about it later

Agreed. No question that Brees has been one of the best and racked up crazy stats but he's been the ultimate game manager, distributing the ball with high completion percentages, for almost a decade now and the Saints have continually failed against the most elite competition. Hell, they've only scored more 24 or more points 3/9 games in the playoffs since 2013, with the last time being against the Panthers in 2017, That 'high-powered offense' scored 23 once, 21, once, and 20 3 times in their last 5 playoff games. They win a lot of regular season games but that style can't be counted on to get it done against the elite in today's NFL.

24 points should typically be enough to win an NFL game but the postseasons is its own beast. It's a big reason why I'm personally so against the game manager style and advocate for dynamics.
