Brees or Rivers?

[tahirjon]

I've been scouting this board a bit and I've observed that most of you are very excited over the prospect of signing Drew Brees.

I was wondering, if Both Brees and Rivers were Free-Agents, which would you take.

I personally think letting Brees go will be one of the biggest mistakes in our franchises history. You might be surprised though that I'm a minority, most of the people on the Chargers' board have all but accepted our GMs stance and are ready for Philip Rivers. In fact I think there are more Brees fans on here then on our board.

In any case I wanted to see how some of you felt. The two-time pro-bowler or the fourth overall pick of 2004?

That's impossible to say as Rivers has never played significant time but Brees' injury would scare me a bit. If both were healthy I'd go Brees simply b/c he's been a good QB but based on potential and now w/ Brees having some Shoulder problems I think I'd give a shot to Rivers.

It's tough but I would pick Brees. Brees has overcome a lot and shown he is a competitor while Rivers hasn't shown anything.

With the injury I would still take Brees....You don't know about Rivers he could be a bust. Brees we know.

Rivers is unproven, Brees is aproven star

Well, your thinking seems to be in line with the rest of the league and media. All except the Chargers.

I hope Brees has a succesful career wherever he is as long as it's not against SD. I hope that shoulder doesn't give him any problems.
