Greenbay May Want AB!

BrooksMustGo · 02-10-2006, 12:17 PM

First, BMG, why are you defending Brooks?

Just observing. No defense for the indefensible.

Second, Kordell Stewart was with the Steelers for 8 not 6 seasons, he only played a full 16 games 6 times. Is that what you mean?

Yes

Add to the fact Kordell played the "slash" role for quite a few years with the Steelers, meaning he provided more to the team than just being the QB.

GEEEZZZ,

I didn't mean to start ANOTHER anti Brooks thread!

I only was pointing out that Green Bay might possibly have some interest in aquiring AB. Since, it seems to be a forgone conclusion that AB is gone, why not get something for him if we can?

Well you did and I am here to DEFEND!!! LOLOL. Actually whodi...I think if Haslett would use Brooks on a few more rollouts that he could have easily provided a little more than just QB.

"He was a soldier of New Orleans....Honor Him!" LOLOL

Well FJ, I think you are dead wrong, but it's all good.

Here's my knock on Brooks, the guy can make great plays, he's made many in the past, the problem is he doesn't make good plays when we needed it the most, he's hurt us more than he's helped us

Couldn't have said it better LTF.
Brooks is a moron that can throw......period.

It will just be a great comfort to me, knowing that when our new starting QB drops back, I won't have to worry about the ball mysteriously flipping out of the back of his hand when he goes to throw it.

CHACHING · 02-11-2006, 10:44 AM

Or him throwing it to an OT.........moron...

AB has two good things going for him, a strong arm, and decent legs. The problem is his legs tend to send him backwards to often and his throws tend to go to the wrong guy.

Things against AB.
1. Arm, too strong for his own good, tried to fit passes in sometimes.
2. Arm, inaccurate.
3. Hands, must be the size of a fourth graders the way he drops the ball all the time.
4. Nothing upstairs, except some dust.
5. Poor attitude, if I see that laugh after another interception I will vomit.
6. Needed leadership training.
7. Blames problems on everyone else.
8. Mistakes ALWAYS at the wrong times. How many INT's or Fumbles do we have to see inside our or our opponents 20 yard line.
9. Could have made the Bears defense from this year look bad.

That being said there will be some HC and some QB coach that say, wow look at that RAW talent. I could make him into a star. I say AB is worth at least a third if not a second round pick.

If I have to hear RAW talent uttered together describing another one of our draft picks I may have to seek psychiatric help. I want to hear polished, poised, when describing our picks and Free agents this year.
