He will be one of the greatest QB’s I will miss.
Same 😭
I'm a Bills fan, but I love Drew Brees as well. This dude was an absolute beast in the NFL. Breaking multiple passer rating, passing td, and passing yardage records. I will miss seeing him play.
yes
As a Patriots fan, I always wanted to see Brady and Brees in the Super Bowl. After Brady got his 5th, I started rooting for Brees because he was just the best at this game. Too bad the referees always had the Saints in their crosshairs.
@@vipahman Yeah Because It could be like 3 to 4 Drew and brady Super bowls and Hey I Always Wanted to See Tom Brady to do good Also GO WHO DAT
His accuracy is incredible. He’s the most accurate passer in nfl history. Goat
@Eli Benda "He's not the most accurate he's just statistically the most accurate"
His last couple years were certainly short slant central, but even besides that he was unmatched. He holds the three highest single-season completion percentages, and six of the top ten. From 2006-2019 the Saints offense was repeatedly the top in the league, and never dropped out of the top 10 until 2020 when time and age finally caught up with him. He didn't even have a single Pro Bowl receiver until Michael Thomas. Easily the best precision passer in NFL history, it's mostly a shame his greatest years were hindered by the Saint's historically bad defense (2012 Saints allowed the most yards in NFL history, for example), and otherwise he'd likely have another ring or two.
@Eli Benda saying he does dumb throws doesn’t make it true. If he’s throwing to tight coverage and it’s consistently getting caught, that means he’s throwing it accurately enough to where it’s not actually risky. He has never had a great receiving core. The Saints offense was still second in the league the year Sean Payton was suspended. Brees just has some of the best accuracy in the game, and that’s what allowed the Saints offense to be so dominant for years. The sample size is just too large to say he was a risky passer who got lucky, he had constant receiver turnover and was also really good at spreading the ball around. He didn’t necessarily need specific standout receivers because he rarely threw balls that were difficult to catch, he’d put it right on the money almost every time
@Eli Benda precision passing is not the same playstyle as arm cannon. Rodgers playing for deep bombs does not mean Drew Brees is worse at precision passing. Brees has always been a precision passer, and nobody has ever matched him in that category. He has constantly found success with any and all receivers provided to him, despite most being no-names, undrafted, or otherwise just not standouts on their own. And again, if you can force passes into tight coverage to constant success, that’s called being an incredibly accurate passer. Which is the point of precision passing. Brees did not get picked off a lot, and his career completion percentage is second of all time. Only Deshaun Watson has higher (barely), but he played for a fifth of the duration as Brees, so it’s definitely less impressive than keeping that kind of consistent success over 20 years. Brees is the most prolific and successful precision passer in NFL history, just like Michael Vick is the greatest running QB in NFL history. Nobody has ever matched them in their specializations. That doesn’t mean they’re the best all around, or the best at the other styles of qb play like the arm cannon or game manager, but their specialties are what brought them success
@Eli Benda that is correct. Because then he would not be playing in the precision passer archetype. Just like if Vick didn’t run the ball as often, he would not have as many rushing yards. Everybody plays to the category that suits them best, and for Brees that was precision passing. And he ended up being the best to ever play in that category. Having an arm cannon doesn’t necessarily translate to shorter accuracy, or Vice versa. There’s no objective best playstyle, but you can be considered the best within your playstyle. That’s what Brees is, the greatest precision passer of all time
@Eli Benda I wonder why he has every completion Record 🤔🐐
Farewell to Brees and thanks for bringing us much happiness in New Orleans

DIGGS SIDELINE TOUCHDOWN(i know im funny)
@@icefresh-nr1to at least we have a superbowl
He’s still there just an different capacity!
Going to miss him
Not a Saints fan, but this is truly special and his career was amazing you have to admit that even if you’re not a Saints fan and just like football. wish he won more Super Bowls.
That scoreline that pops up during the highlights, 48-49 says it all. Dude never had a defense lol. Imagine scoring 50 points and the game still being close
*cough cough* NFC championship 2018...
WHODATT he deserved a few more
He had such a great throw. I feel so bad some of his best years were wasted with trash defenses. Also, him and Graham in the red zone were lethal!
He and Marques Colston were also lethal in that red zone, and insane on third and long situations. That dude (Colston) made some insane catches in all kinda traffic. That was prime Brees, when he could still throw lasers.
@@CreativeLion2314 The fact Colston never made a Pro Bowl is an absolute travesty. The dude was automatic, and frankly was good enough that even with a receiver like Michael Thomas, there's still debate over which was better.
Yep scoring 42 and loosing
And now our defense ain’t bad smh 🤦♂️ if he was here now… if he was heerrreee now
We will remember Drew Brees. He was my favorite Quarterback. I’ll miss you 😢GOAT🐐🐐

As a falcons fan the rivalry with the saints won't be the same without Drew. Hats off to an amazing career
as a saints fan, i miss the early brees and ryan rivalries like '09-'13. they were usually always close games
Rivalry?
getting ready for this week?
I got tears in my eyes. As a lifelong saints fan, I’ll miss Drew Brees! From all of us in New Orleans, T H A N K Y O U !!
This man fought through so much adversity. He will always be the GOAT in my opinion.
now he can go spend time with his family and he was one of the greatest to ever do 80000 passing yards is insane
Ye, and it’s not know it’s now
Only 2 have 80k passing yards, so I guess that’s correct
@@TheJkLol only 1 does
@@whodatnation9816 800 off, Tom Brady is gonna get that in like 3-5 games
Yeah. We will remember him
I think something that gets missed when people talk about Brees is his ability to navigate the pocket. He keeps his eyes downfield, his feet moving, and is able to make small adjustments to miss the pass rushers but also keep his base strong.
First ballot HoF'r, no doubt
Even in some of these clips the places he’s able to put a ball while under pressure, on the move, or while taking a hit is insane. There are starting qbs today that couldn’t have that level of accuracy with no defense against them
He had 3 5k seasons in a row
You don't get much more accurate then Brees.. he can put that ball wherever he wants
It's crazy how accurate he was when you consider he wasn't that tall at all.
Brees had some amazing speedsters to throw to. Devery Henderson, Robert Meachum, Brandin Cooks; but it's not enough to have speedy wide receivers, you have to be able to throw the ball accurately. Drew was one of the best in that department for the bulk of his career.
He’s had speedsters but his best wide receiver by far was Marques Colston. He didn’t play that long but he made such an impact on that team.
It's like Mahomes he has a fast wide receiver and a good tight end
@@nicehat2619 over 10k career receiving yards and no pro bowl he was snubbed
@@nicehat2619 The Jimmy Graham/Darren Sproles duo was his best offense
@@nicehat2619 Marques Coltson the GOAT
I dont think one player had more impact on a franchise or a city like Drew. Literally saved us, no joke. He came the year after Katrina in 06 and Tom Benson was gonna move thinking of moving the team San Antonio where we were playing during the hurricane; but we went to NFC championship for the first time ever and it brought the city back to life. I am eternally grateful to him.
Those 30-50 bombs are so accurate it's crazy. I'm gonna miss watching him play :(
@Eli Benda about half of them were through tight windows with multiple defenders there.
@Eli Benda check down warrior is Brady brudda 😂 take the L
@@elibenda5644 bud it’s very obvious you never watched drew Brees play. The most accurate qb to play the game, threw a lot of medium passes, some short and some long. Always threw a man open even if he was double covered. The majority of his interceptions came from tipped balls off the line of scrimmage, shitty receivers that would let the ball hit their hands or their chest and bounce up and get picked that way. Or a miscommunication where the WR was supposed to be somewhere when the ball was thrown but wasn’t. Drew Brees orchestrated that offense knew where every receiver was and where he was going to be. The man knew the receivers routes and breaks. Squeezed balls into some tight coverage regularly. You have nothing on this argument. Go crawl back into your hole.
@@elibenda5644did you not watch this video ? Check down warrior ?
7:31 is one of the absolute most impressive plays I've ever seen out of anyone. Dude was 39 at this point and still rinsed two defenders with a spin move.
Number 7 is the most in-stride pass I've ever seen in my life. Receiver didn't break his sprint from the 5 yard line to the endzone
It is sad that we are not going to see this guy around anymore I just remember him making big plays every weekend.
Just two words: respect and admiration
That's three words
Brees is a LEGEND and his career was amazing, now he can spend more time with his family and receive all the admiration he deserves.
Spectacular Brees - you will be sorely missed.
And through out it all, he was battling arthritis in his throwing shoulder. Makes you respect his greatness even more.
Thank you for everything Drew. You truly were the Saint we needed. Louisiana loves you forever.
The greatest quarterback to ever play the game.
Enuff said
You forget how historic and amazing he was.. In his prime he beat down Brady, Roger's, Favre, manning and almost everyone.. Injuries just caught him down the stretch last few years
Devery Henderson such an underrated receiver
Damn, his drop back and movement in the pocket is just beautiful to watch. Especially when he was playing in his prime.
2011 Drew had one of the greatest seasons ever for any athlete, astonishing how he didnt get the MVP
Pure bias
@@tylerlee7379 ask about anybody and they would agree
@THE GOAT HAS SPOKEN and thats your opinion
@@morethanmeetstheeye0 yeah, and don’t waste your time with that troll
2011 Saints should have won the Super Bowl that year.
shame we never really got him a defense till late. best to ever do it
When came to NO, he became the quarterback in the history of the Saints franchise
In the history of NFC South or even the whole league
He’s at the WORST a top 8 qb of all time
Very much. Brees is easily the best QB the Saints ever had to date.
@@maruthib9333 he's top 20 at best
@@crimsonszero Haters.
Even as a falcons fan, I know this guy has had a hell of a career.
Especially as a falcons fan. He made a career of making falcons look like the clowns they are
Absolutely crazy to see the change and evolution to his receiving core... Meachem, Colston, Henderson, Bush, Shockley, Moore, Stills, Cooks, Graham, Thomas, Watson, Cook, Sproles, Kamara, Snead, Morgan. Crazy how time flies 😭
he was so dang good in hes prime. it was a awesome time to be a saints fan.
#9 will forever be my number 1 drew Brees play
I’m a bears fan, and playing the saints will never be the same without Drew Brees, congrats to him on an illustrious career, Drew, you enjoy your retirement, you deserve it
Everybody wanna hop on drew brees and give him all love and respect. But where were y’all when he stood up for our city? I’ll be screaming who dat for the rest of my life. Drew brees will forever be a saint. Best of the best.

GOATED FOR LIFE we love you drew one of the greatest players to step on the feild
Mr. Breeze 'cut his teeth' with the Chargers & "earned" his MASTERS certificate with the Saints....A real SURGEON with the football. Gona miss him !
Watch Drew in the pocket. His pocket awareness was next level. On top of the goat level accuracy is why he is one of the best ever. He changed the saints culture and made us proud to wear the black and gold. There will never be another # 9!!!
Man I'm so gonna miss this on Sundays!! This piece highlights many of his deepest connections. That deep threat had faded by around the 2017 season, and all but gone by the 2020 season. But he still got the job done - the golden age of Saints football. Who Dat!!

That shoulder injury tied with age got him in his later years, but he was still crazy amazing
he still does ???
@@Deluxe-nx7vm no he don’t lol brees is shot his arm strength diminished years ago Sean Payton just schemed around it with short throws
@@dwaynehardwell897 - 2018 is when his arm started decreasing, although he still threw it far he just didn't have much zing to it. But in 2016 he still had plenty of arm strength. 2017 you could see the first signs of wear, 2018 was an amazing year for Brees, but a lot of it was scheming. 2019 and 2020 his arm was pretty much gone. But considering he had a shoulder injury that would ruin most careers, it's amazing his arm lasted as long as it did
@@self-righteousideologue9398 no his arm actually started declining around 2017

Top 5 QBs all time for me.
Not at all..

Great highlights from a GREAT CAREER! Drew is like a smaller, more mobile version of Peyton Manning IMO. Definitely one of the BEST TO EVER DO IT!
Great to see him in his prime when he was still throwing well downfield. Never the biggest arm, but he was good at choosing his spots to step into it and heave it deep on the dot.
Colston and Graham were underrated, too.
In keeping with the bad luck Drew often encountered, it's a shame that one day soon few will remember when Drew was the career leader in passing TDs and yards (for like a few months).
The best 9 to ever do it, my goat, love this guy
