If you are considering our receiving core as counting against Rodgers then you also have to give him credit for playing behind (out of the top QB's) probably consistently the worst offensive line. He is sacked and hit far more than Brees/Brady are.


Oh you have to give him that.

As for the who's the best etc I'd put both Brady and Rodgers in front of Brees for one reason: weather.

Brees plays over half of every season indoors and at least 1 game in Florida compared to Rodgers & Brady who get Chicago, New York, Foxboro, Green Bay, Buffalo etc.

Brees arguably has the best coordinator too with Payton, McCarthy is good and O'Brien in New England is pants he calls some of the most bizzaro plays you could possibly decide from...he seems to like running all his receivers on go routes on 3rd & 1 for some reason :roll: then some games he will forget he has running backs and he doesn't seem to know screens exist.

It's so close I really couldn't seperate them, but at this moment in time I would say Brees is in better form. Obviously that could and probably will change next week but that's how close I think they are! I don't think Brady is far away from them 2 either but he has had a few erratic throws in recent weeks. I can't put him top either cos I would just get called biased :wink:

I can't believe the Saints haven't tied him up to a long term deal yet, his value is going up with every game and he will shatter Marinos yards in season record unless they pull him from the game(which they won't because they tried to get him it the other year) I read an article the other day saying Brees wasn't interested in signing a franchise tender so they had better get their chequebook out!

He is. There is no QB better than him. Certainly not this year. The stats and performances have been unbelievable. He was (i doubt he will break them all now) on course to break virtually every QB record ever held. IIRC currently holds the record for best regular season career QB rating and holds the record for the best QB rating in play-off history.

I too think unless we can improve our defence then that will happen.

There's a difference between saying someone is the best QB in the league and making the quite ridiculous statement that they're the best 'by a clear distance', because he isn't.

Actually thats a good point, and I was discussing it with a mate a few weeks ago about SB being indoors/Florida virtually every year and it helping with QB's getting close to Marino's record.

As you say Brees can play at most 7 games outdoors every year and only 5 will ever have the possibility of being in seriously bad weather given 1 is in Tampa and the other is at Carolina which is usually OK weatherwise. It also helps him out because he is IIRC the shortest QB in the league. This year they have played 5 outdoor games and 4 of them came by week 6.

I don't hold it against Breesus but it certainly doesn't help them come play-off time if they need to go to a cold/intimidating outdoor stadium.

Although in 2014, they have allowed New York to host it. We could have a snowy Super Bowl.

I know Rapelisberger is a tough bugger but I can't believe the Steelers would risk him when they are already in the play-offs!

I know they want the #1 seed but they have to win out to get it and could damage his foot/ankle more in the process, I hope the 49ers smash him all over the field tonight and win the game.

Could do with the #1 seed ourselves :PRAY:
