There’s a legitimate case for Drew Brees to be THE BEST quarterback to start and end an NFL career. (I hedge that way because Patrick Mahomes makes me choose my words carefully.)
That guy, Drew Brees, was #1 for 15 years, and he was ours in that time. Even in the most pessimistic of times, you’d make the case that Brees was all we’d had. He was a joy to watch play the game and I’m glad he became his peak version while wearing black & gold.
