Do you want Brees to retire? (1 Viewer)

Do you want Brees to retire? The Saints have I think the best regular season record in the NFL over the past 4 years. I think it’s crazy to say he’s incapable. Or is he a choke artist?

I just don't wanna see Brees go out sadder than he has the past two post season.

He can do what he wants. I hope he figures it out on his own.

He’s washed up. Time to retire

 

[Saints 4 life]

Yes and no. Part of me wants to see a healthy Brees get one more shot, and part of me is curious to see what Winston can do. I miss that long ball.

 

[WhoDat?DrewDat]

Yes. I'm a Saints fan not just a Brees fan, its best for the Saints for him to move on.

Sadly, it's time.

One bad game? So you think he’s a playoff choker? We were 12-4 and won the division.

I don’t want him to retire but unfortunately I think he slows the explosive part of our team down. We just don’t have the deep pass that you need. Dink & dunk doesn’t beat great teams.
Winston has me since he’s the best qb we got on the roster assuming brees is gone.

It was not just one bad game.

Over the past two years the Saints are:

18-8 with Brees starting (1-2 post season)
8-1 without Brees starting.

If Brees can come back for another season and play better than he has since December of 2019, then great. If not, I think the record shows CSP and a strong roster can still win a lot of games.

Yes. Long ball weakness is too obvious and a detriment to a championship
It’s time to rip the scab off this wound it’s going to cause and get on with the healing.

Brees is my all-time favorite Saints player.

But having said that...if we have to consistently bring Taysom or Winston into the game to throw the ball deep, then yes, I believe it's time for Drew to retire.

Take a deep dive into those 8 wins and it’s pretty scary. The Broncos game shouldn’t even count. With Teddy we won games where we only scored 12 and 13 points against Dallas and Jacksonville. Another game required defense and special teams touchdowns to pull out the win. Not exactly the type of games that scream super bowl contender.

I do but probably not for the same reasons as many. I have never been a fan of watching elite players play until they are a shell of themselves. I don’t know for a fact that Drew could not do it one more time but I think the chances are slim and I don’t want to see him fail again. He has been way to good to have that as part of his legend.

 

[ANKOMA33]

IMO it's time.

For his own health, yes.
