Drew Brees is quietly approaching the NFL passing yards record...

[Jack_Ripper]

He only needs about 1500 yards to break Maning's record...if he stays healthy he should hold the all time TD Mark also heald by Manning next season. Not bad for a guy who's too short to play NFL QB...

It is always quiet when Brees breaks records. When it is Brady or others, that is all you hear. Wish Drew would get more credit for his HOF career.

Plays In the wrong city.

Also, only one super bowl

Always the 3rd best. Bad timing

had a good chance to get a 2nd ring this past season if it wasn't for a moronic play by that DB. As far as his notoriety in media goes, I've noticed an uptick in his appearances in media ads like commercials and in magazines. Still proud as hell for the guy, great role model and person.

There isn’t a product he won’t do an ad for

The stats , money he donates to Purdue and other causes, his family, speak for themselves. Hard to find a better Purdue graduate athlete who gives back.

Agree.

Several of the early Tiller players have really been great.

Those ads helped pay for the Brees Academic Center. And the recently acquired Wooden jersey.

I say keep doing the ads!

Is this supposed to be a shot of some sort?

I’m a fan of his, but there are few products he won’t be a shill for. I say that knowing full well I would do the same if not worse

If it is I would call it an unnecessary one. But whatever.

Same

 

[MilwaukeeBoilerFan]

A once in a lifetime QB. It might be another 2-3-4 decades before another QB like him can break the mold. Purdue has had some great ones. Len Dawson, Bob Griese, Mike Phipps, Mark Herman, Jim Everett before Drew Brees and Kyle Orton, and several solid QB's after Orton. No disrespect to any of them, but in my lifetime, one clearly stands out above all due to as much if not more off the field good deeds as on the field. Drew Brees is one Great QB and representative of Purdue University.

How do you know what endorsement opportunities he turned down?

Brees is the greatest Purdue football player, ever. That’s all.

Go follow him on Twitter. Mostly ads

I do. Doesn’t mean he hasn’t turned down most of the offers he’s had come his way.

Okay pumpkin. I know I triggered you. He may or may not shill every product he comes across. Better?

LOL, whatever dude. You made a glib, BS proclamation, and I questioned you on it. No need to get pissy.
