Aaron Brooks: 27 out 45, 3 Int., 1 Fumble

It's a free country. If Aaron Brooks is free to play like a 8th grade back-up quarterback, then I am free to criticize him.

In AB's defense, 1 of those int's was a tip.

Ok with that out of the way - the rest was attrocious. And even the 1 tip shouldn't have been thrown, it went right between 2 receivers neither of which looked sure who it was intended for. Brooks played bad, and so did the rest.

Brooks had his bad moments and his good moments. I have just resolved myself to the fact that AB will have one stupid moment (fumble the snap) at the worst possible moment. And yes he threw some INTs but he also threw soem fantastic passes. I thought the refs were atrocious -- and the running game non existent

So the 6 straight trips into Giants' territory in the second half that resulted in zero points were all AB's fault? The fumble on the opening kickoff - that 7 we spotted 'em doesn't count? How about Hodge's illegal contact penalty on 3rd down when we sacked them and knocked them out of fieldgoal range (they scored two plays later - remember?). That 7 doesn't count? Two catchable passes to Conwell in the endzone - those don't matter. 1 Horn fumble at the one that was a touchback - no worries. A Carney miss - not important. This was AB's fault!!!

You guys do sound a little nuts. I just don't get why you're blaming him for this one. The TEAM sucked. What's with the overwhelming need to blame one guy?

Do 8th grade backups complete 60% of their passes and throw for 345 yards?

No but they do throw 3 int's and fumble snaps....
just bein' a smartass....

Shhh, everyone! Aaron Brooks' mother's in the room under her pen-name TheGambler.

Face it there are at least 20 other QB's in the league, back-up or otherwise, that Saints fans would rather see under center. The guy's got "stone-hands".

Not all Saints fans....just the ones who are fairly uneducated about the game and lack mental stability.

"just the ones who are fairly uneducated about the game and lack mental stability."

Was that last quote about Aaron? I'm sorry, Ms. Brooks. It is Ms. Brooks, right? I'd rather have Shaun King as QB, instead of Aaron "Stonehands" Brooks. At least he's quarterbacked a team to the NFC championship game, and the last time he played in New Orleans, he went undefeated.

Are you TRYING to look like a fool, or is it just sort of coming naturally?
