The Athletic had an awesome article a while back on just how bad the Saints were defensively for most of his time there compared to the other leading QBs who won Super Bowls. With a semi-competent defense he wins at least another one.
It just sucks that by the time they had an average or above average defense, his arm was starting to fall off a bit.
