This reminds me of Jon Kitna and Frerotte all over again.
Horrible or below average careers then they all of a sudden have a breakout year (Frerotte only a breakout 2 game span) now everyone jumps on their bandwagon.
Brees was horrible was 4 seasons- Now alot of people think he is great
Frerotte was horrible, had 1 good season, was below average again then had a great 2 game and now alot of people are on his bandwagon.
Kitna was below average his whole career. Then he has that one good season and everyone jumped on his bandwagon.
I want consistancy. 1 good season out of 8 is not my idea of a fute QB. 1 great season after 4 horrible seasons does not get me excited. Culpepper, Manning, Big ben, Donovan all started off prett well in the NFL.
I am all for givinga QB time, as long as he is in my system. But I will not mortgage my future on a QB who had 1 successful season.
I am not dissing Brees. I think he will remain solid. However, it's not worth the $ nor the picks it would take to get him if we decide to go his way based off of 1 season.
