I used to back Brooks. Even when I shouldn't have. There's no question that the guy has physical talent but doggone it his brain was just wired differently. I really wanted Brooks to do well after Blake went down. He didn't. Blake may have taken the Saints further but Brooks just wasn't capable.
The o-line has been junk so far this year no question. But should our frustration with it conceive a Brees/Brooks comparison? Surely you jest. Off topic, where have you been, saintfan? I appreciate your posts and have seen little of them for a while. |

Re: Same ol'
Thanks for the shout ice. I've been around. Got banned for taking it to a few moderators here and there, but I've been lurking everywhere. I've been extremely busy the last year and a half since the company I work for got bought out. Just been watching some of these arguments since we've been playing so poorly and can't...hold...it...back...no...mo!

Re: Same ol'
I think you guys are off track. I don't think it should be a comparison but there are a lot of simularities of what 'some' things that happened to Brooks being behind a sorry line and Brees being behind a very similar line. I don't think you can compare the 2 QB's but you can look at there play and see simularities and I can see Brooks having the same issues.
I'd have to say if we actually had a great line Brooks could have very well lead a team to a SB... hell Grossman did. |

Re: Same ol'
I see your point 12 guage. It is not a comparison of Brooks and Brees as QB's, it is the contrast of how the fans react to similiar stimuli. It is what it is....

Re: Same ol'
We should all be used to this by now guys and gals. The same product the Saints have been putting out on the field for years and getting paid bigtime by the state and all of it's citizens. The organization has been screaming for years that they were going to move but we always come up with the money and it's odd that it's always enough to keep them in New Orleans for only 4 or 5 more years.
Wake up people, call Bensons bluff next time, We have nothing to lose but a losing team and maybe regain a little of our own dignities in the process. |

Re: Same ol'
... why am I getting into this .... why am I getting into this...
...oh well... What really started the criticism of Brooks -leadership- was what he said after Turley came to his aid in the Jets game. Heavy criticism on his play didn't really start until the 2002 season, and it started mainly because he had all the physical skills you could ask for in a QB, but didn't know how to use them to effectively be a QB in the NFL. Just imagine if Brees was 6'4" and could launch it 70 yards off his back foot... ... and as usual, at one point it turned into a racial thing, because some black people cannot stand hearing any white people criticizing a brotha, because that's racist, ya know? White people should not even look funny at black people , because that's racist. If you are white, you are supposed to say only good things about back pleople, and forgive black people of any wrongdoing, because they are black. ... myself, I am going to see how this season turns out, before I start making any comments about Drew Brees. After all, he's played 21 games as a Saint, and Brooks had 5 years. "Yeah, but Brooks is black, TR".. Oh, my bad. In that case... The ***** set him up!!!!! |
