Drew Brees Guys Quotations

I felt like we had the opportunity to do something special. I got the feeling that these guys really wanted me here. I think we've got a tremendous opportunity to win, and win very quickly. I know this town is craving a winner and we're going to get one.

Doug has been great to us, ... He'll come up on the sideline, even if we don't ask him a question, and say, 'Did you see what I did? The reason I did that was because I saw this or that, or they were blitzing a linebacker.' He lays it out for you where you wouldn't know otherwise. It's great, because Doug's my kind of player. He can do a lot of things that other guys can't.

You enter the game and see what kind of game plan they have for you defensively. If they bring a bunch of guys down in the box that you figure are going to pressure a lot, there are big holes in the defense to take advantage. I felt like we were able to do that today.

That first touchdown run he had, where he runs outside, there's two guys there, and he just stops, and both those guys just keep going and he cuts it right up in there untouched in the end zone. For any other player, they're getting tackled by two guys at the 2-yard line, and nobody touches him and he walks into the end zone. He's a spectacular player.

Not only is he good on grass, but you put him on turf, and he's even better, because he was making guys miss out there and it wasn't even funny. I got to see it firsthand, best seat in the house.

They guess right at times and we put ourselves in bad situations with second-and-longs and third-and-longs. We had guys coming through the line (unabated). LT got hit in the backfield a couple of times.

They had a lot of guys sitting on the goal line who thought I was going to run. Keenan slipped behind the defense and I was able to drop it off over the top to him.

It's just part of the process. It's not unusual; it happens all the time. Trust me, none of the guys on the team are worried about it.
