this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; All Leinart knew at USC was success. He lost two games in three years by six points, and Young was all that kept the Trojans from winning three straight national titles. I've heard the same story from a couple of ...

RE: Good points for Leinart supporters
I read this article earlier today and really liked what I saw. I've always thought of Leinart as a Tom Brady or Peyton Manning type guy. These guys both don't have a Brett Favre arm but make the right decisions and reads to help their team win, and I think that is exactly the kind of qb Matt Leinart is. I also realized that this article really hyped up Leinart and Cutler while only giving a brief paragraph at the end for Young. I think that the rose bowl buzz is wearing off and people are starting to realize he isn't on the same level as Leinart. I'll say that after the rose bowl I liked Young (not as much as Leinart) but would have taken him on our team, now I put him in the category with Cutler (they're good qbs, not great qbs). No knock against Cutler or Young, but Leinart is starting to separate himself from the other 2 as the clear cut best qb in the draft.

RE: Good points for Leinart supporters
Besides the arm strength controversy (which his arm is not weak), what's not to like about this guy?

I will have to agree, I liked him from then on, well and after seeing how horribly the Saints were doing it did not hurt that I thought there was a good chance that we could end up drafting him. |

No sense arguing with Euph, gandhi. He's just clinging to the little bit of hope that he has left that, by someway trading down, the Saints will keep Aaron Brooks.
