Obviously this is more so a look into Drew Brees the person than it is Drew Brees the player. Him interrupting what was a busy afternoon - at its most crucial point - to show appreciation for a young fan just goes to show how highly he values the role he's been entrusted in as a professional athlete. There's truly no one better representative for the Saints organization or the City of New Orleans, and it's nothing short of awesome to watch his faith in both finally pay off on the field again. That being said, how about the swag in that strut?! How about him casually cocking the throwing arm as if to tell the Redskins that he wasn't just giving a young girl a moment she'll never forget, but also giving them just one extra second to accept their inevitable fate? All Drew Brees had to do was turn around and hand the ball off to the monster that has become Mark Ingram in overtime, but best believe he would have only added to the flawless stat line (11/11, 164 yards, 2 touchdowns) he casually posted in slinging the Saints even if he had to. The pre-play slapping of '5' is a move used by only the most confident of athletes. Drew Brees was just that in orchestrating 18 unanswered, that should silence any of the naysayers that think his numbers being down has to do with anything other than him finally being the best player on a complete team.
