Congrats Drew Brees
An amazing feat, toppling Dan Marino's record tonight. 5,087 yards in a season - and he still has one more game to play in regular season play.
Congratulations!

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
Can't say a bad thing about the man as a player or a person. He worked hard to accomplish such a feat and it is well deserved

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
Not only did he set a new record, he did it with a TD pass. Really great game and it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Way to go Saints.

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
Enjoyed the game as well. Really, really enjoyed how he acknowledged the whole Saints organization for the achievement. Classy Guy!
The penalties on the Falcons team this game really kept them from making more points...as well as the defense of the Saints. |

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
Drew Brees is one heckuva leader and QB. Good for him! It was going to happen sooner or later and it is nice to see Brees get it. Congrats Drew Brees!

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
First class!! Love how he puts the team before himself. More athletes could learn a thing or two from Mr Brees.

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
Just think a few years back, no one wanted him because of his shoulder and all the "potential" health problems that he could have...haha Great Job Drew...an amazing accomplishment!!

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
Drew,
When you read this, I just wanna say I always thought San Diego should have never let you go. Congrats on an amazing season, and keep up the great work. You are the complete opposite of what Eli Manning is and I respect that! Oh one last thing, what's up with the Nyquil commercials?

Glad that he was the one to break the record.

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
Congrats to Drew, can't believe it took someone this long in the pass happy NFL.
The one thing that irked me was that tool, Mike Tirico. How many times did he point out the rules for passing in the league have changed from when Marino set the record? Almost like he was putting an asterisk on Brees' accomplishment.

I was listening to the commentary on ESPN radio on the drive back from Green Bay after watching the game with MJ at Titletown Tobacco. Was able to listen to Drew's comments afterwards. Wow, I was impressed. Football is a team sport, and individual records often rise above the team. It was great that Drew acknowledged the "team" aspect of the sport. Granted, it is his record, and no other quarterback can claim it, because no other QB has done it. But it did take a supporting cast to do so. That's the kind of football player I hope kids find as a hero. Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Congrats Drew Brees
+1. It would be impossible for him to have such a record without the help of the rest of the team. I hope he buys them all a Rolex and a case of stickum.

if someone has already. Last year when he was only 15 yards from breaking the record, or last TIME he was close, he had a man wide open across the middle for the record, and he threw it at the receiver's feet. It was not a scrambling throw and was not by any means a difficult toss and catch. I thought it was simply a tip of the hat to the MAN, DAN and he likely thought about it later and said, "NEXT time that puppy is MINE, Dan..." Quote:
As for asterisks, I heard one caller on WWL radio out of NO say there SHOULD be a asterisk by the record... * - "Brees did it ALL while being less than 6 feet tall" Personally I hope he throws for 500 at home against the Panthers next week, sock that puppy away for a few seasons...
