Brees also had no D or running game most of his career. This also is why he has great stats. They are throwing the ball from start to finish. Can't hold a lead and can't kill the clock....in most years. Brees is a baller, but you have to look at all the facts.
That's not his fault. And how does not having a running game help his stats? That means everything is on him. I do give a lot of credit to sean payton just like the patriots staff deserves credit. But lets be serious they Rob Ryan running their defense. Without a good run game with Rob Ryan running your defense....good luck.
Lets not forget having to rebound from a team who lost their coach for a year and had the worst statistical defense in the history of football the two years after bounty gate. Very tough to reincentivise a defensive you were paying extra money to go and make plays. That's why they were the worst defense of all time. Yet, Brees took them to the playoffs the next year. I am looking at all of the facts.
I'll take Brees at home over any qb at home. Especially due to those circumstances he went through and still is 2nd of all current QB's.
