Well, the poster's name is "Devil's Toilet Paper", loosely translated of course. Some things are just to be expected.

And just so FF get's my point:

Am I the only one who has seen Romo, and the great Favre do this too? On more than one occasion I might add....

Yes. He deserves to be in.

Nah, you're not alone, just folks don't want to talk about that, or the line (on either side of the ball) or the defense in general or the bad case of the dropsies the WR had. Heck, I remember someone on this very forum try to make a point that it was Brooks' fault that our defense couldn't defend a screen pass. Yep...people went THAT far.

They never want to give him any credit, not for the numbers, not for the come from behind wins, not for the playoff win...nothing, however they wanna blame him, and pretty much him alone, for all the problems, and it's like arguing with a stop sign.

Look, I know the first team defense practices against second team offense for game plan purposes. But screens are pretty much Defense 101. Unless your team can't or won't run them. If your defense can't practice against quality play execution (screens, posts, etc.) your defense can't and won't be effective against those types of plays.

If the Saints can't run a screen, how can they practice defending it? The defense probably looks great in practice against it. But against who is the real question. By game time, against teams that can run screens properly, the defense looks ineffective.

There you go...I had to go find it. There is SO MUCH of this stuff in the archives. So, here we have this fellow attempting to establish that our defense's inability to stop a screen pass was because Brooks couldn't throw a screen pass. The Brooks haters will stop at NOTHING I tell ya...NOTHING.
