Backin--Drew Brees established himself long ago. Think the Chargers were good by accident?

In my statment, which was an overstatement of comparison (hyperbole), the attempt was made in a more dramatic way to illustrate more of what Drew Brees isn't than what he actually is! As far as I am concerned, Brees hasn't yet established himself as a top notch NFL quarterback, the caliber of which may be the most determining factor in a team's success. Unless someone can propound conclusive evidence to the contrary, I remain steadfast, and uncompromising in my beliefs. In other words, I feel Brees, at best, is a slightly above average quarterback, the quality of which will not take the Packers to the next level.

Fair enough, but using that reasoning, Peyton Manning isn't a top notch quarterback since can never take his team very far into the playoffs (as in, the Superbowl / "next level"). I'm not saying you said that Manning isn't a great QB - I'm just extrapolating your reasoning. It's not all about the quarterback anymore. I think if you have a guy that makes good decisions throughout the game, gets the ball to his receivers, doesn't turn the ball over, and is a good leader, you have a very good start. Brees is a quarterback that fits all those descriptions. I'm not saying he's as good as Brady, but he is similar in many ways. I sure wouldn't mind seeing him come here (if Brett retires).

Favre, Rodgers, Brees,(insert QB name here), will not produce if it isn't fixed, and no one wants to come into that situation regardless of any storied franchise. Of course its all about timing so our OL is not in place while some tempting QB's are on the market...better get them ducks lined up, and fast.
