MoLewisrocks said:The Chargers have said all along money in keeping both Brees and Rivers was not an issue. They have cap room. What this tells me is they have serious concerns about his ability to return effectively in 2006. And that, along with how long it took Drew to come into himself in the SD offense, should give any other takers pause.

broadwayjoe said:You got that right and the Dolphins have Chris Chambers and he has been playing pretty good without a good quarterback plus they have Randy McMicheal as well.
He's expected to be fine but not throwing at 100% until sometime in camp. Although some compare it to Pennington, Brees didn't tear his rotator cuff like Pennington, it's not nearly as serious. A torn labrum isn't a good thing but other QBs have had it with no long term issues.Flying Fungi said:What's Brees' physical condition these days--in terms of his rehab and expectations for 2006?

Flying Fungi said:Thanks--also, Pennington was a noodle-arm before his injury--he just traded down from fettucine to linguine.
I like Brees, and was happy to see how he responded to criticism the last 2 seasons.

BelichickFan said:I don't see how SD can just let this guy go. His arm injury isn't supposed to be career, or even 2006, threatening. Good QB are just worth too much. And the Chargers are competitive, if Phillips flops this could wreck the franchise.
