OFFICIAL BRETT THE LIVING LEGEND THREAD

He's also throwing his bombs to receivers this year. How many games do you remember him launching those bombs into triple coverage? He hasn't done that this year so far.

I think that's a combination of defenses having to respect the run more, making receivers more open downfield, as well as some good playcalling my Chilly.

I'm not certain on the last one so Ras would have to back me up, but Chilly's playcalling seems pretty good.

He's also letting Favre change plays, something he didn't let Frerotte do. I think having a dude with Favre's experience helps when he's allowed to make adjustments at the line.

What QBs are playing better ball than Favre right now? Manning definitely and maybe Brees (though I'm not sold on Brees). Maybe Brady, too, after today.

How the fuck can't you be sold on Brees? He's been doing this shit for the past 2, 3 seasons. Jesus.

No kidding.

OMG!

Sal reports that the last chuck to Rice v walker (62 yards in the air) was a run play the Favre audibled out of! Led to game-winning FG...Dayum, what a beast...

Not sure why cats here want to minimize this dude's essence

Like I say to my self when Im wrapping up my 7-11 miles running on the treadmill (10 today), "SOLDIER!"

Wait, you're not that guy that falls over himself trying to keep up with a friend of mine on the treadmill next to her are you?

He doesn't have the "it factor" going just yet.

Partial you are comic genius man.

Brees is solid but I don't think he is spectacular. I haven't seen him play much so perhaps that is why.

I guess I'd take 14k yards and 88 TD's in the 3 years before this year and call it pretty damned good.

And you aren't an eyeball guy either (since you didn't watch him). How do you judge players? Magic Eight Ball?

I saw a lot of him in college and a couple times in SD. Don't know, not a huge fan. His teams haven't really won much.

Seriously. You said you don't watch him but you're not impressed. The guy makes every throw there is to make. He made the Saints a good team again. They can actually run the ball because teams have to respect the pass so much.

Guy is a stud QB.

[Partial]

I'm not saying he's bad, I'm saying I'm not a fan and he's not one of my guys. If I were building a team and had my choice of any QB in the league, it wouldn't be him. I don't think he'd be in my top 3. That's all I'm saying.

Well yeah I don't think anyone would pick Brees because everyone would pick Peyton Manning. As for your arguments I don't understand. You haven't watched him yet you don't want to use stats. Then you say he hasn't won much either. How do you measure QB's? Wins? If wins only, it's a team game you can't accurately say that a QB is solely responsible for a win.
