FO? WTF?

FatiusJeebs · 03-20-2006, 09:18 AM

Damn I need to start posting on the weekends more. LOL. Truth is...we can't dwell on the past anymore. Brooks is gone. I defended him just like a few others here did but truth is....he is no longer here. Its kind of ignorant to say our FO isn't doing anything. They are doing what they can. Especially in this difficult year where many free agents are afraid to play for us because of Katrina. I think our FO is doing a pretty good job considering our circumstances.

True dat...but I think with this group of coaches that this will be adressed by game time.....They have to protect thier 60 mil dol investment.... 8)

Chaching has a point. As much as I like Hawk...the logical thing would be to draft Brick.

Yeah, all he did was winone of those little trophies, damn, what are they called, oh that's right, THE LEAGUE MVP on one of the worst teams in NFL history. How may Saints players after Archie have that honor?

Secondly, you don't need a great offensive line to win it all, you need a great scheme, which comes with great coaching. San Diego has nowhere near a great O-line, yet they have been a playoff team, and a very good team the last two years. Miami went 9-7 with that crap offensive line. NE's offensive lines were nothing anyone is putting into the hall of fame. Hell, Tampa Bay's offensive line when they won the Superbowl was trash. Tom Brady is a great QB who does not have a great offensive line. They had Logan freaking Mankins starting for them last year. But those guys have been together, and have great coaching. If you have a smart QB, and a great offensive line scheme, you can win in the NFL. Hopefully this year, we should have both.
