Buc The System?
Very,very, good point Gator. A more realistic comparsion would be to compare their first 3 years in the league.
I\'ve talked about this before but I will say this again. The Saints system to date, has not been friendly to the completion percentage of a QB. I think we all agree that the tight end position has be less than adequate, which is one postion that contributes to compeletion %. Another position that is friendly to completion % is throwing to the running back, which is not what it should be yet. I have just listed 2 area\'s that if the Saints improve on, should get Aaron\'s completion % where it needs to be, IMO. The Saints offense relies on throwing to the receivers primarily, and these throws usually are not high completion percentage throws like Brad Johnson is asked to make. Johnson basically has all possession receivers, unlike the receivers that we have, that stretch the field vertically. Because the Saints were weak at the tightend position and because we did not throw to Duece nearly enough last year, Aaron\'s completion percentage did suffer. The Saints offense should have a whole new dimension to it this year. Opposing teams are going to have to respect our tightends and screen passes. Once that happens, Brooks should be able to play throw and catch with the receivers. Add in the threat of Brooks running the ball and this is going to be every defensive coordiantors worst nightmare. |
