As much as Los Angeles Rams fans may not want to acknowledge how much of a difference Sunday’s 27-9 win over the New Orleans Saints would have been if Drew Brees didn’t suffer a thumb injury, it is a valid point.
There’s a reason why it’s only a matter of time before Brees punches a guaranteed ticket into Canton as one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game of football, and it’s tough to imagine where this Saints team would currently be without him.
Unfortunately, New Orleans is about to see where this team will end up standing without Brees now that the veteran quarterback is expected to miss a significant amount of time following thumb injury.
