Fair enough. If I recall correctly, wasn't Brees thought of as an underachiever until they drafted Rivers, and then he had his best season?
It's easy to look at what Brees has done with the Saints and say he's a great quarterback. In San Diego, wasn't he decent, but not great?
Edit: That's pretty much what you just said.
