But, but, but I thought Brees loved New Orleans and it wasn't about the money? LOL!

This move means 1 of 2 things:

Brees realizes he will have to play under the tag this year & is trying to protect himself going forward. Or, more likely, he is doing this to gain leverage & force New Orleans to pay him now.

i guess this means he's willing to sign, but he's going to make it hurt.

i can't imagine that they are making it any cheaper on themselves by allowing it to get to this point.

the franchise tag might be a cheap way for them to get through this season but it's going to cost them dearly.

message to Saints* fans....he's just not that into you.

Oh wow didn't realize he had to be signed by tomorrow... that crept up real fast.

I dont understand the Saints*, why they went on a FA binge even though they lost some key players. If they can't keep Brees or keep Brees happy, they have no shot of anything. Their entire organization accomplished nothing for 40 years until Brees fell into their laps and developed into one of the greatest quarterbacks to play the game. Pay the guy 30 million a year if you have to, who the hell cares, they need him more than 15 million worth of players at other positions.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      So answer the question. Why did Chark and Hurst have the same metrics (go look them up, I did... and one was actually worse in LA) with Justin Herbert? Why did Mingo have the same metrics with Dak? You're right, there is a common denominator, just not the one you're trying to make.  Why could DJ Moore get open with Bridgewater, Allen, Cam 2.0, Darnold, Baker, Williams, Bagent? I'll answer the question for you - because he is a good WR unlike Chark/Hurst/Mingo.

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.
