Why would I include Len Dawson? He played in an era where football was a SECOND JOB.
What Len Dawson did in the era of single bar facemasks is hardly relevant in 2013.

You said it yourself - Brees is the exception to the rule. And remember, we root for the Chiefs. If it's bad, and it can happen, it will happen to US.
