Drew Brees Outside the Huddle
Hours before the Saints signature win over the New York Giants, Drew Brees autographed pictures for some of his adoring fans. Here are some more Outside the Huddle shots of the prolific New Orleans quarterback.
Brees has thrown 101 touchdown passes since signing with New Orleans as a free agent in 2006. That puts him on the list with Archie Manning and Aaron Brooks as the only other QBs to pass for 15,000 yards and 100 TDs as a Saint.
Brees threw four touchdown passes against the Giants as New Orleans improved to 5-0 for the first time since 1993.
Brees leads the league with a quarterback rating of 118.4 and his 13 touchdown passes are second most, behind Matt Shaub's 14.
Brees did his part to promote Breast Cancer Awareness two weeks ago.
Coach Sean Payton and Brees didn't miss on many scoring opportunities against the Giants, finishing with 48 points for the second time this season.
At around 6-feet, Brees isn't the tallest of quarterbacks, but he gets the job done better than few others, as Eli Manning could certainly attest to after Sunday's showdown.
Former Houston starter and current Giants backup David Carr paid his respect after Brees completed 23 of 30 passes for 369 yards against New York.
Brees completed 15 consecutive passes against the Giants at one point, three of them touchdowns, as he came within two completions of matching his own franchise record.
Brees would love to lead the Saints to the Super Bowl. He took them to the NFC Championship game in January 2007, where they lost to the Chicago Bears.
