If he played in that system with those receivers he would complete at least 60% of his passes.

Don't act like the Ravens had a bad WR corp last year. I don't think Flacco would magically complete more balls just because Sean Payton was his coach. He had Payton Manning's OC and didn't put up those kind of numbers did he? If Brees and Flacco swapped places, Brees would be far more successful at his job.

To be fair, Flacco's play improved dramatically when Caldwell was brought in. I think he's shown irrefutable proof that his coach/OC/system can really affect his performance. Payton is, for my money, the best offensive mind in the league right now. You don't think he would have a positive impact on his quarterback? I don't buy it.


That being said, if we're taking all QBs at face value right now, part of the reason I rate Brees so highly is because of his situation he is in. Yeah, he's in his mid-30s and we've most likely seen the best season he'll put up (which, btw, is probably the best of all time), but 80% of Brees the past 7 years is still better than probably 28 QBs in the league. His skill-set is a lot like (Peyton) Manning's, where even with diminished arm strength he's still got an incredible ability to find holes in the defense and beat you on short/intermediate passes.
