That's our good ol' psychotic boy

Does Drew Brees has to make every single thing into a hyper-competitive game of some sort?  Yes, of course.

Brees, during a weekly chat with WWL Radio, has said he wants to beat the 6-8 week timeline he was given.

It's the last week before a bye. The team is 6-1. Teddy is doing a good job in the meantime. There's no reason to "beat" the doctor's professional recomendation other than just plain being a weirdo.
