Payton and Brees didn’t turn into “Payton and Brees” until 2009.
That period before the Super Bowl only yielded a 25-23 record then they won the championship and became the HOFers you see today.
But it started with a ‘06 division title run.
This just isnt based in reality. Brees averaged 4,637 yard per from 2006-2008, led the league in passing twice, completions twice, td passes and was offensive player of the year in 2008. Winning the worst division in NFL history isnt all of a sudden going to turn Allen and Dalton into the next coming of Payton and Brees.
