Drew Brees is the greatest player in New Orleans Saints history. Go ahead, say it. Get it out of your system. Take a second if you’d like to think back through history and try to stretch your imagination to see if anyone comes remotely close. We love our patron Saints, Danny Abramowicz and Archie Manning, but their numbers don’t remotely stack up. Deuce McAllister was the leading rusher in our franchise history, but his 7,800 total yards pales comparatively speaking. The other three in the conversation are bigger names, because they are NFL Hall of Famers – and one in waiting: Willie Roaf, Rickey Jackson and Morten Andersen.
To Brees or not to Brees
