Brees was asked after the win about facing Brady.
“Ja, (Ek) don’t take it for granted. I’m very appreciative of the opportunity. En luister, the minute that he signed with the Bucs and came in the division, you felt like that was going to be a team to contend with, that was going to be a team that had playoff aspirations and beyond, just like us. So, I guess it was inevitable,” Brees said.

Brees was 28-for-39 with 265 passing yards and two touchdown passes in the win over the Bears.
The veteran quarterback might be playing the final games of his NFL career. He is expected to retire after the team’s run through the playoffs comes to an end, ESPN reported earlier this month.
Brees signed a future broadcasting contract with NBC in the spring of last year and has played through a lot this season, including with 11 cracked ribs.

“They thought that last year and he surprised them in March by deciding to come back. Hierdie keer, he’s got a signed contract with NBC. Hierdie keer, he’s another year older. Hierdie keer, he’s played through the 11 fractured ribs, the punctured lung. It’s been a difficult, physical season and I think most people still believe that this will be the final season for Drew Brees in New Orleans and in the NFL before he turns to the broadcast booth,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter said before the Week 17 games kicked off.
