[QUOTE="IPBprez, post: 1093, member: 51"] After the end of this season, there is slated.... a huge competition in San Diego. We all already know about the conflict with the Draft last Spring over Eli Manning and San Diego. Whether that was prompted by Archie Manning's dislike of Schottenheimer, or not..(whatever) ...remains to be seen. At any rate, Eli ended up with the Giants. Now, Drew Brees' 2003 Season was very un-spectacular.. and before the 2004 Season took off, Drew asked to speak to the team. Since that time - we've seen an emergence, in San Diego, of another Dan Fouts type QB. The Chargers, this year, are something to contend with on all levels, especially Defense... and Special Teams are doing quite well this year, too. The change in Drew Brees' play, out on the field, is nothing short of "phenom" status compared to last year... BUT... we all saw what went down in the Draft, last April. They took on the trade of Philip Rivers because of the Eli Manning stunt - him not wanting to play for San Diego... who would ever think they'd see such an event occur... I mean.. hey - the beaches, the babes, the climate.. what more could you ask for? ... the water along the beach is almost always warm, whereas in SanFran - you gotta wear those skin-diving suits up until July almost. Philip Rivers was highly touted in the Draft - above Rothlisberger, in fact - and the Giants definitely wanted him in their Camp.. well, we all saw how that worked out. So the deal becomes - [i]"What happens to Drew Brees after the Season is over?"[/i] Personally - I watched Drew Brees up close since I live only about an hour south of Lafayette, Indiana - Drew went to Purdue Univ. -- He made great strides in the game against the Colts this last weekend - coming home, so to speak, to play an NFL game in front of all of his family and friends had to have been awesome! He played real well, too! Will they let Philip Rivers go? The Net worth for Drew Brees went sky-high this Season.. What does everyone think about Drew Brees being a Packer? Would we be better off with Philip Rivers? (Maybe so...) I like both of these choices. DO THEY (either of them) "want" to come to Green Bay? Good question! [Thinking more of it - after posting this initially - ] [i]"Why would either of these two QB's [u]not[/u] want to come to Green Bay and be mentored by Brett Favre?"[/i] Up front, It would probably be better to let Brees stay in SD and have Rivers, untested in the NFL, come to GB for some in-depth QB-to-QB on-the-job training.... I like Brees, big time - but I also liked the stats, in College, for Philip Rivers! Rivers... seemed to have the same moxy as Brett... Opinions? [/QUOTE]
