Giants Versus Saints, No Comparison

[BlueBlitzer]

Inasmuch as how they do business with their QBs. Isn't Brees still looking for a long term contract. The QB is the most important player on your Team. As much as I would like to see the Saints implode ( And they've been doing a good job so far ) A SB winning QB who sets passing records, shouldn't have to stand in line waiting His turn to get a contract.

Do the bounty payouts count against the cap?

He may see the situation as being bleak and therefore he's trying to force a trade of some sort through his demands.

So the Saints should pay him whatever he wants??? $100M per year if that's what it took?</P>


The Saints are not low-balling him. He has been offered $20M per year and is demanding $25M per year (when the team salary cap is $120M). The Saints are doing exactly what I would want my team to do.</P>

He could hurt us more elsewhere.

Without Brees, the team would probably have to pack up shop and go into rebuild mode. Their offense can't be run by any old quarterback, and without a potent offense forcing opponents to abandon the run and take shots downfield, they'll get exposed.

The Saints need Brees more than he needs them. Pay him.

This... unless Spags turns that defense around. They actually have a few nice pieces on defense.

[THE_New_York_Giants]

They just need a QB who can run the spread in NO. Guys like Colt Brennan and Case Keenum would probably do well in NO. They are basically a hybridized spread offense...
Brees is really good don't get me wrong, but I think he is partially a result of the system.
