Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints for winning the Super Bowl and being able to hoist up the prestigious Vince Lombardi Trophy.
Well, the Saints were the underdog against the Colts, but they were clearly the big dog when the chips were on the table.
And how about Drew Brees?
While Tom Brady and Peyton Manning steal all the spotlight as the best QB's in the NFL -- and rightly so because they are both outstanding signal-callers -- but don't you think Brees should start being mentioned in that same sentence?
I know Brees hasn't has the career success as Brady or Manning, but right now -- in 2010 -- he's no doubt a top-3 QB in the league. Rank them any way you want, you can't go wrong.
But it's now time for people to start talking about Brees as an elite QB. Yes, he's now a Super Bowl champion and a Super Bowl MVP. He's got the bling, and that's how all great QB's are judged.
Brees delivered on the biggest stage, while Manning surprisingly faltered just like Brett Favre did in the NFC Championship game with a big INT that cost his team the game.
But I look at it more like the Saints won the game; the Colts and Manning didn't lose it.
How can you not be happy for the city of New Orleans? If you've got a heart at all, you've got to love the fact they are now champions.
Congrats to the Saints on a job well done.
Let the party begin.
Who dat?
