Brees is old as dirt and he licks his fingers too much.

Yup cousins is a nobody and Teddy’s a stud in the making even though he hasn’t played in two years (or did anything prior to his injury) ..... exactly why I hope Zim and Spielman don’t bother to read yours :lol:

Ps, not one single person on here said Bradford could “heal up in a heartbeat”. And either way, his last injury didn’t demolish his knee to the point where players were puking on the field. Little bit of a difference there. Just a little though :whistle:
I think you are wrong about Teddy achievements before injury. He was the league's best Qb in the final 2 mins of games in 2015. He won 11 games including beating Rogers in Lame-blow for the division and was a miss kick away from knocking off Seattle (the NFC Superbowl representatives the year before). His stats weren't pretty but to say he didn't achieve anything is a gross exaggeration.

Also, the look of an injury doesn't really correlate to the long term prognosis of said injury.
Lets be honest, HE didnt win 11 games. That was more on the coat tails of AP and his defense. We were one of the worst passing teams in the NFL both years he was our starter. That alone should say enough. He was a game manager. I'm not saying he was "awful" but he was a game manager than leaned on the rest of his team. Congrats on being the best QB in the last two minutes but we needed a lot more out of him than that

Bye Brees. It was a fun five minutes.
