The kid scares me.

Rivers? Me too. I'd be more comfortable with Brees, and definitely Leinart. But, how could it be worse? Oh, if Rivers had to learn under these coaches.................. :crying:

RE: Gotta love that Peter King
 

The Saints currently have a quarterback who for some reason the ball just falls out of his hands as he is about to pass and Rivers scares you ????

I am checking the calendar to see if it is April 1 ......

RE: Gotta love that Peter King
 

I like Rivers... very accurate as a college quarterback. Throws a good deep ball and has great size. One bad thing is he throws a little sidearm. But with his size... who cares.

RE: Gotta love that Peter King
 

I would take Rivers for AB right now. Hell, I agree with ya 08 we already have a rookie QB starting every week.

RE: Gotta love that Peter King
 

I would take Rivers over AB right now too, but that's not saying much. Rivers has never been tested. Sure he's big and he was a pretty good college quarterback, but his mechanics are just awful, and we don't have the kind of coaching that can take that kind of raw talent and turn it into an efficient product. I'd rather get somebody who doesn't need a lot of coaching on the fundamentals, since our team is probably the worst in the NFL at that.

Guys, right now I would take a piece of ass lint for AB right now. The guy is getting progressivly worse every game he plays. Watch, this week he lights up Atlanta! I bet he does. He is actually inconsistent enough to have a career game against Atlanta after one of his worst games as a Saint.

But from who's ass? :wink:

George "The Animal" Steel?

Man that dude was hairy.

Rivers appears to have the right attitude
 

Rivers would be a huge upgrade over Brooks. He would not be laughing after a mistake or shaking his head in disbelief. He would be in peoples asses and on himself.
The only problem is that we would have to trade our number 1 pick in 06 to get him and that looks like a top 5 right now. So the questions really becomes Rivers, Leinart, or stick with AMAC in my opinion. If I were running the show I would try and trade Brooks now while you may still be able to get something for him (you just know some dip like Billick in Baltimore or what's his name in Detroit would think they were smart enough to turn his career around and give up a 5th rounder to try) and let AMAC take his lumps this year. You then pick up the best LB, LOT, or DT on the board when you pick in the top 5 of 06.

RE: Rivers appears to have the right attitude
 

Yeah getting rid of AB would solve the coaching and D problems...

Re: RE: Rivers appears to have the right attitude
 

Probably true

A smart QB would make Haz look brilliant.

Sustained drives and TD's in red zone visits would make the D look like all-pros.

You just don't stop do you?

Just so you know....the D can't stop Al Harris from running AB's high school passes in for TDs. Or Blouman's for that matter.

They also can't help the Saints stop settling for FGs cuz the offense can't score.

You deflect every bit of criticism thrown at AB. Just go home, dude. You have no idea what you are talking about. AB's QB rating on sunday was a freaking 25!!!!! A 25???? Against a banged up D coming off a Monday night hangover.

Stop deflecting it to the coaching and defense. I'm not gonna tell you that either are very good, but a QB that kills drives and changes his skillset every game is the worst poison any team can have.

Brooks is done. He cannot do the job. Period.


Again, when you talk about Defense, are you going to tell me that the 3 points we put up on Sunday will win a game? The 85 Bears may not even win with an O that impotent.

How bout this for our D.....The Green Bay defense outscored the AB led offense 14-3.

So give it a rest....please. It is sooooo annoying to see anyone defend this guy after Sunday. I have defended him when the criticism was unwarranted, but he is getting worse.

Re: RE: Gotta love that Peter King
 

Hell, I'd take Ryan Leaf or Akili Smith in place of Brooks right now!!!!! At least they didn't smile when they were killing their teams.
