Brees is the best QB in the NFL

Okaaye, umm, he's too short, too nice, has a (bottle) rocket arm, has a WMD growing on the side of his face. It's really nice when someone overcomes the (ahem) shortcomings that life deals them. Bless his heart.

In reality he is the best QB in the NFL today, right up until Sep. 9, 2010. See ya then. Just for perspective, from January to September of 2001 it was Trent Dilfer. :D

In all seriousness, Brees should be included in the discussion of who is the best right now. I won't argue against him. But you can't come in here, throw down that gauntlet and not expect a raspberry in response.

Bree's is undeniably an elite QB, with an incredibly accurate throw and all the intangibles that make QBs great, I am hesitant to agree because of Sean Payton.

Sean Payton has always been an incredible offensive playcaller and he designs plays and drives with few peers. Considering that you have to wonder if Brees could operate like Manning does, who effectively just has a consultant as an OC. Manning often calls the plays himself.

Brees is incredible, but I think he has the perfect HC who plays to everyone of his strengths. Due to that, it would be hard to put Manning below Brees, simply because of the extra things Manning does over Drew and still performs equally or better in most situations.

In addition Manning has played this way his entire career at this level, Brees has not, which does suggest that and Sean Payton have got the best out of each other.

Just because the Saints won the Super Bowl? That makes them the better team but says nothing about individual players. Brees is a very good QB and among the elite today but not the best. That doesn't mean he can't become the best and very well could but he just isn't there yet.

In all honesty, it's hard to say this when Brady has 3 rings and Big Ben has 2. And while I really don't like Ben or the Steelers, Ben would have never got thrown around like Brees did by Freeny on that one play in the SB.

      Tonight should be a win. Most of the Mavericks are hurt (or being sat for tanking purposes).

      So the fact that he was already projected in the first round says he is an elite talent by your argument. This is before the combine numbers. He was already a first round lock that says elite tight end by your measurement. Is he some blocking type player no.. but he is in the Pitts territory of elite H back split type guy. His blocking also isn't as bad as your making it out to be he shows effort and adequate ability. He isn't Sadiq "the freak" for any reason. He's been on NFL radars since before the season. How many "Freaks" or elite athletes do the Panthers have on their roster? You need game changing guys to put odds in your favor I think. Outside McMillan or Brown I say 0 and even McMillan might not qualify because his size is the only thing elite. He doesn't run 4.3 with 42 plus vertical like this kid, after the combine we would be lucky if he is on the board like what are we even talking about?

      Damn we almost agree.   I think he is limited. I don’t think 20 yards is deep enough to consider him a good deep ball thrower.  But we agree that the field needs to be stretched. The defense needs to feel legitimately concerned about all of the field. You cannot have that unless you threaten it.    Right now they are playing the odds that one throw and catch is a fluke and they have a better chance not worrying about it. Case in point the Rams regular season, he did it once and they still left it unaccounted for. Who else would defenses play that way?
