FanNJ, I can not believe that you actually said that you would not want Leinart because he "has peaked". Yet, you would be OK with letting Brooks have another shot even though he has consistently regressed ever since his first year.

Yes I am and I think he has regess more since 03 than anything else along with the enire team. I am wondering if it is more his grip on the ball post surgery, sweaty palms or maybe the change in center that was causing the airball fumbles. I blame more the coaching than anything. This year I refuse to look at because they all sucked and given the circumstances did anyone really believe that it would have been better? No it was expected that they suck.
Brooks is a known quantity and can play at a high level. Consistancy as Whodi points out is what is lacking, but that starts with the O-Line the Running game and The Q_B as well as the recievers, and is more of a factor of poor coaching and diciple as much as it is lack of skill and ability.
Do I think that what I have seen to date makes me believe he could be successful absolutly, and I would take that over the unproven any day. If Payton and FO deciedes to keep AB and bring in either a young quarterback or FA that can puch for the starting spot will he play at a higher level..good possiblility he would.
When you look at the regression is it all in his corner, no. Would you say that Farve regressed this year because the entire team around him was inconsistant? Did you happen to watch all the fumbles and Ints he had? Would you still call him one of the top QB's in the league? I would.
Not to many QB's will florish when every drive contains 1st and 20 2nd and 15 3rd and 25 get my drift.
