Brees staying in NO

[Jmac]

Signed for 2 years...50 mill...27 guaranteed. No suprise. Will have to put up with him for a bit longer. HOF"er won't go away.

[hsfolk]

that's actually a good deal for NO

Media personalities are already talking about how great of a guy he is for taking a discount...it's $50M...makes we want to vomit.

He could have gotten $30 million per year if he wanted.

I know he could have but let's not pretend he is some deity (like the media does) because he took a $10M pay cut. Pretty sure this puts him close to $250M in career earnings.

New orleans had him over a barrel because they knew him and his wife did not want to move.

maybe he can get a car now that wont break down on the way to the stadium.......

just fuging retire

I guess that QB/Special Teams ace the broadcasters were slurping will have to wait a few more years to get his chance.  If you think those guys got excited over a tackle on ST, wait til he completes a pass.

there is just something about that man that pisses me off.  the way he jogs to the huddle, how he bobs around in the pocket, the way he shoulder fakes, that time luke mccown got the start over him in 2015 against us and the fox crew was just utterly spellbound by him "breaking the huddle" on the sidelines.  barf.

i hated that too.  "whoa ho ho, look at that!  a quarterback playing on special teams?!?  how strange, only the saints could be so creative, what a whimsical flight of fancy brought to reality here tonight".

Good. He cripples them for two years, he is already declining and this just prolongs the inevitable nose dive they will have when they fail to have a competent heir apparent.

should be interesting to see how Saints handle life without Brees when it comes to picking their next QB

this deal is hardly crippling for NO

[Chaos]

Let's send him to an early retirement.
