Just a numbers update for my fellow WhoDats since I know football news will be slow for a little while:
Brees currently stands 3rd all time in NFL passing yards (66,111) needing 5727 to pass Farve (71,838) and 5830 to pass Manning (71940)
In order to make history he would need to average 364 yards/game which is about 40 more yards/game than he's averaged in 2016 (326) and 2015 (325) and about 20 more yards than Manning's historic 2013 season (5477 yards, 342 yd avg)
Of course I know the importance is more so on winning games, staying balanced to bring the city 1 more ring, but if this offense clicks like the 2011 season(5476 yards, 342/game) and our young receivers take another step forward, we could see history come week 17 (week 3 2018 if we're being modest lol)..just one more thing to watch for.
