Saints Best Player

Ok,

It's a joke. I didn't read the article since I'm not an ESPN insider, but the headline

QB Brooks visits Bucs made me chuckle.

I doubt he'd let himself be a backup so I doubt he'd sign with them, and I don't think they are stupid, but...

Wouldn't it be priceless if for some reason (Sims/Griese Injured), he was starting for the bucs when we played them? He'd be our secret weapon!

Do you think he'd throw any backward passes for them?

You have to remember that Brooks gave the Bucs brain damage for years. Brook isn't as bad as many people make him out to be. He could excel in the Bucs offense.

He might, but I doubt it. Gruden requires intelligent QB play, fast decision making and quick release. Not strengths for AB.

He would do himself a lot of favors by either talking to the Raiders or Arizona. The Raiders will probably want to throw the ball a mile every time and Denny Green is a genius at getting above average results from below average players.

agreed. it took Simms 2 years to grasp Gruden's playbook. that's equal to about 10 for Aaron....

If AB saw that he'd probably be pretty upset. I think he'd say, "10 years? It wouldn't take me 10 years to learn the playbook. It'd probably just take a decade."

He still hasnt learned the saints.....

Hey, six years and he ALMOST had half the playbook.... maybe ten years was being nice.

forever, brooks will not be any better anywhere else. he won't get a starting job and if he is pushed into one i hope that team play us. if he does sgin with tampa and simms gets hurt i hope we play them twice after. that will be fun

Could you imagine the look on Chucky's face while trying to explain the playbook to Aaron?

HAHAHAHA!
