My problem with people arguing Brees being “top 5 all time” is that there was never one season where he was the undisputed Best QB in the league. He’s the 4th best QB of his own era, so how can he be top 5 all time?

He can be top 5 all time if the 3 above him are also top 5 all time.

HOFer but boy he really choked the last 3 playoff hands.

Folks like to harp on the non-called DPI against the Rams, but literally 2 plays before that, Brees threw the ball at Michael Thomas’ feet on a most likely walk-in TD. That’s the moment their window got shut for good.
Worst than that he had overtime to win the game and the Saints won the coin toss. You telling me the great Drew Brees couldn’t March down the field and get a FG AT HOME IN THE DOME?????

Not too 5, but top 15

could make all the passes from outside, deep, short etc for basically being under 6 foot

he should have at least another ring or two

this is the first playoff year, I blame him

the other years has been bad defense from coaching to players

I just dont get how some of yall judge QBs..

Marino had zero rings but id rank him higher then 90% of these QBs listed here.

Young was like a foundation of what Rodgers is yet no one gonna put him top 3 or 5.


Yall really do rely on Rings instead of your eyes to rank QBs....theres always context win it comes to wins and losses. And most the time it has fukk all to do with the QB

I agree. You have people saying a ring this year would boost Brees' legacy. If the Saints managed to win this year, he would've been along for the ride, not a major factor.

I can't say where he ranks all time, but I agree with people who put him behind Rodgers/Manning/Brady.

Steve Nash of the NFL (except he lucked into a ring). A guy that wasn't anything special in his first stop and they had no problem moving on without him. He goes to a new squad with this offensive guru and starts putting up stupid numbers. Always held up as an elite but not held to elite standards. Will get a pass for Ls and fukk ups and elevated over superior players because people in the media like him.

Hell nah. Ban yourself :camby:

Ben was a better talent than Drew. Just cause you don't like Ben Rosthlisberger the man doesn't make him a shyt quarterback. Drew benefited from a system and the rules. He wouldn't have lasted as long as he did had he played in a different era.

How stupid are u? Drew brees been playing since 2001. What fukking era u referring to that Ben played in? Get your casual ass out of here :camby:


Ben has always benefited from his defense. He was avg at best.
Then again i dont expect u to know this because u thought Brees was some new era QB :mjlol:

How good was Brees before he had Payton as his coach. Brees never gets sacked and Ben has more rings. Ben is an old school gun slinger. Brees played in a dink and dunk offense.

Yeah i dont like it either
Steve was a 2 time mvp and had an abundance of nfl records when he left.

5 of his 6 playoff losses were 2 brett favre snd aikman. Not 2 jared goff, curt cousins etc...
