10. New Orleans Saints

Before anyone freaks out over how ridiculous this scenario would be, keep in mind this is one of those long-shot scenarios in case Drew Brees would all of a sudden decide to call it a career since the future Hall of Famer isn’t getting any younger.

Yes, Brees continues to show that he’s capable of playing another few NFL seasons when seeing how he currently finds himself in the running for the MVP award once again, but what if the New Orleans Saints star decided it was time to call it quits?

When the time does come for Brees to retire, there’s no question he will go down as one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game of football. And while the Saints seem to have a few options to consider as potential replacements, imagine a scenario in which the team would want to take advantage of the stacked offense they have now, which Foles would be perfect for.

After all of the success Brees has been fortunate to have with weapons like Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas to work with on offense, the addition of a replacement like Foles would help this team remain a top contender in the NFC.

Of course, the tough factor for a team like the Eagles would be knowing how a move like this could prevent them from reaching the Super Bowl if they were to face the Saints, which is part of the reason why this is such a long shot.
