i base my opinions on what i see, not what i hear.....30 yrs ago i went with my heart, now i go with my gut.....yes, collins did take em to the superbowl, but he did not win it......i believe he had the supporting case to do it, but he did\'nt......if anyone deserved a s.b. ring it was elway,,,,how many times did you see him get knocked down and get up to get the job done? marino deserved one also, but i don\'t believe he ever had the supporting cast he needed, they were close at times, but this is not horseshoes.....kelly was a fighter too and i did like him.........not too many people can remember the loser in the past superbowls.........ask minnesota fans.............as far as brooks goes, i do like him.....he has what it takes but he needs to apply it on a daily routine.....i don\'t wanna hear what he\'s capable of, i wanna see it......over and over and over.....there\'s a lot of q.b.\'s i liked that never went to the s.b. much less won one...if the saints stick with brooks and he never steps up to the next level, they will continue to show you the missed blocks or the missed passes or why the interception happened because someone was\'nt where they were supposed to be and it won\'t mean crap to the average fan......the great ones find a way, the good ones find excuses or have coaches explain why they did not win......there is no doubt in my mind that brooks has what it takes. as i said before, he dazzles me......the question is can he apply it and make it stick. he is so young and so talented it is scary...........i wanna see the, i won\'t quit in his eyes, the, we can come back and win this one, the, it\'s not over by a long shot attitude......maybe he does need more time and maybe he\'ll continue to dazzle a few games and lose the rest...all i\'m saying is show me heart and determination and i\'m yours......smitty
