swede700 Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Brady is the only one I believe that is guaranteed to return. If Brees wins the Super Bowl, he'll be out. Manning is done. Rivers might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he has a desire to play for another team or break regular season passing records (assuming Brees retires), I’m not sure there is much incentive for him to return.

There wasn't a real incentive for him to return this year. I think he plays until Giselle forces him not to.

PrplChilPill Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Why would Brees retire? I agree on the others......but Brees? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Brady keeps on going to pass Brees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has nothing to accomplish either...and he's at the point right now that his arm could fall off any moment. His contract also voids in the new league year and he'll be a free agent. If the Saints choose to move on or don't offer him enough money (which he has shown in the past that he won't settle for any less than what he feels he deserves), he could just walk away and retire. I'm not sure I could see him moving to another team at this point, so it's NO or no one, as far as I'm concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be like the best RB in the game retiring early, that would never.....oh, right. I'd certainly applaud him for being smart enough to save his brain and body, but I'd also be shocked.

Now if Aaron Rodgers decides to retire, I’d be shocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
