Fox Sports' John Czarnecki: Brees overestimating his worth

AARPSaint said

So, if Brees is a system QB, he must have many pro-bowl wide receivers, right? /sarcasm

I'd love to see Brees in a real game with Steve Smith, Calvin Johnson, and Andre Johnson as the WRs (or substitute any prow-bowl receiver of your choice) plus. let's say, Jimmy Graham and Tony Gonzales. Can you imagine?

And that's saying nothing against Henderson, Colston, Moore, etc. Brees and the WRs make each other great.

I'm going to have to disagree with you a little. I think that you are downplaying the talent on the offense. Graham is the 2nd best receiving TE in the game...and may turn into the greatest ever. Colston may not have made a pro bowl...but the guy is a stud and in many people's opinion (including my own) the greatest WR to ever put on a Saints uni. Moore and Henderson are both solid receivers...and Meachem was one of the best deep threats in the game. That does not even include Sproles and PT out of the backfield. If Daniels was QB I think that he would put up more than 3500 yards. Granted...he isn't anywhere close to the level that Brees is...but part of the reason why Brees is great is the talent around him and a brilliant offensive playcaller. Don't get me wrong...Brees is easily a top 5 QB...but the offense has plenty of talent around him.
