Peter King says Brees

If we get him I hope he doesn't have Pennington's noodle arm. :mad:
 
I'm not a huge fan on the idea of dumping money on Brees.
Brees will have less time to recover from the same type of injury that Pennington had 2 years ago.

Pennington wasn't ready be the start of the season and look what it got him...

Brees isn't getting a deal done in S.D. because of this...
I'll take Brees, but with a TON of protection for the team, and if he wants to get Paid upfront, well I hope he finds some other team.
 
Oh happy day man, happy day!!

Why does everyone say its the same injury? Its not. Brees has a far less serious injury.
I thought it was a pipe dream to get Brees a few motnhs ago. Now that he is available we would be fools not to pounce.

Same type of injury? The only thing similiar to the two injuries were that they occured on the throwing shoulder. There's a big difference between torn labrum and a torn rotator cuff.
 
if we get him we have a 50% chance of being in the super bowl

"What is the recovery from labrum surgery?

The recovery depends upon many factors, such as where the tear was located, how severe it was and how good the surgical repair was. It is believed that it takes at least four to six weeks for the labrum to re-attach itself to the rim of the bone, and probably another four to six weeks to get strong. Once the labrum has healed to the rim of the bone, it should see stress very gradually so that it can gather strength. It is important not to re-injure it while it is healing.

How much motion and strengthening of the arm is allowed after surgery also depends upon many factors, and it is up to the surgeon to let you know your limitations and how fast to progress. Because of the variability in the injury and the type of repair done, it is difficult to predict how soon someone can to return to activities and to sports after the repair. The type of sport also is important, since contact sports have a greater chance of injuring the labrum repair. However, a vast majority of patients have full function of the shoulder after labrum repair, and most patients can return to their previous level of sports with no or few restrictions. "
