After last year I\'m definitely not one of AB\'s biggest fans but I have to give him this, he\'s probably one of the most physically gifted QB\'s in the league, except when you watch him run, he looks clumsier than a drunk on bourbon street during mardi gras. Everyone wants to talk about mobil qb\'s and their effectiveness, well whenever AB decides to run forwards instead of a back drop that consist of about 12 steps, then we\'ll call him a mobil qb, but another thing that just baffles me is he can throw the prettiest, most accurate pass 30 yards but he cant hit the side of the dome on a screen pass. I think Deuce being hurt put alot of added pressure on him to make plays and he forced somethings but whenever he says he doesnt want to be known as a runner, and he tries to be a pure pocket passer well he might as well go sit on the bench now, it\'s like Shaq saying he doesnt want to be known as a center anymore and trying to play the point. Do what works not what you want to do to prove people wrong. Another thing that really killed my appreciation of brooks is, after every mistake and int. he had the biggest goofiest smile on his face. I think he should take some responsiblity and think about it at least until the next snap. Anyways, AB has the potential to be one of the best QB\'s in the league and all the talk of him being the only qb in Saints history to win a playoff game is misleading, One playoff victory does not make you one of the best qb\'s in the game today, Trent Dilfer won a SB and do you think he should be our QB? Get real and leave the playoffs in the past and worry about this year coming up, so far AB has had more bad years and games then good, so 3 good games doesnt make him all that great. Yeah he did have good stats last year but when it really mattered and everything was on the line, where did his stats go then, straight south. Until he puts together a consistent season and does something with it then he\'s just another QB tryin to make it, I\'d rather have Trent Dilfer and a SB ring then AB and league leading stats sittin home for the playoffs.....

I disagree with all of this Aaron Brooks bashing. He has shown improvement from the 2001 season to the 2002 season. His INT\'s decreased and his TD passes increased. And if he didn\'t get hurt last year I believe the Saints would of made the playoffs. He did have a few bad games (i.e. Cleveland) but what quarterbacks don\'t have bad games every once in a while? If it wasn\'t for Brooks (and of course Deuce) the Saints would of had a very bad season because the defense flat out stunk! So if you want to point the finger and blame people for the Saints having a bad season point the finger at Haslett and the defense not Brooks! Brooks is the leader and he\'s shown leadership capabilities like when he lead his team to 3 fourth quarter comebacks last season. And wasn\'t he \"leading\" the NFC in touchdown passes until late in the season when he got hurt? And so what he smiles after throwing picks. Brett smiles after throwing picks but do we hear Packer fans moaning and groaning over it. He probably smiles because he knows that he shouldn\'t be making mistakes. Brooks is the man. Some you Saint fans must don\'t want to see your team win. You have the best quarterback in franchise history and you (some not all) dog him. You may never see your team win the Super Bowl if y\'all keep this up. You guys should be dogging Haslett not Brooks.

His INT\'s decreased and his TD passes increased.

I\'ll give you that if you give me that his completion percentage has been steadily on the decline since he started his first game, which had him ranked 26th among NFL QB\'s last year, right inbetween Vick and Plummer. And don\'t mention one word about Vick, it was his first year as a starter. This is his year to prove his worth. I\'ll sit back and watch, as I\'ve been a tweener on the subject since the end of the last season. but if he doesn\'t get that completion percentage up into the 62% range (from his dreadful 53% from last year), he\'ll have a helluva time convincing many folks around here.

BillyCarpenter1 · 06-12-2003, 08:16 PM

BlackandBlue,

Surely you know about some of the greatest QB\'s in the NFL have had worse showings in their first 3-years than Aaron Brooks. You can talk all the stats you want, but the guy has not had time to develop into an elite NFL QB. Do you know how many NFL quaterbacks have had to endure the fans and the media calling for there heads in the begining of their carrears, only for them to go on and have Hall of Fame carrears? Have there been QB\'s that have done better in the same stages of their carrears, sure but if you look at history, it will prove me right.

BillyCarpenter1 · 06-12-2003, 08:24 PM

Here are Terry Bradshaws stats for the 1st three years. Yeah I know all you Brook bashers would have cut him, right?
