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.

    • It's not sustainable,  although he deserve credit for the win also, as he made clutch plays as he does with every win we have. 
    • As much as I would love to sit here and bash on Young.  I can't.   He is absolutely a part of this team winning.  He is the cool hand leading the offense along with the hammer, Rico.  He's making plays on 3rd and 4th downs, that are absolutely helping thus team win.  Is Bryce playing as well as we'd like? Nope. Although he had only 1 week off from a high ankle sprain.   No question he was 100% in the Greenbay game.  I'm not even sure where the team would find a clear upgrade over Byrce.  He is a leader.  In the 4th quarter, he has ice in his veins.  He is a part of why our team is enjoyable to watch again.  Without him, we wouldn't be winning.    Anyways.  Y'all enjoy yet another thread designed to tear down the man. 
    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
