No, I'll take the old veteran with some savvy over the 'not-quite-so-old' veteran who was overrated from the start (well, not really since people in the know left him undrafed and other people in the know - like Bill Parcells and others cut him multiple times).

Just say NO to Jake in N.O.

What Savvy? Who did he impress whe he was in? He's not an active 40 year old playing like Warner or Farve. He's cold off the bench. Not saying he doesn't have smarts or knowledge but I'd swap him for Jake in a heart beat and still hope neither of them have to start.

Jake's got bad mojo. Some of those two-a-game-by-average INTs might rub off on the team. Is Leaf out of jail yet? I'd take him over the interception machine at this point.

Wow, Leaf? Until you said that I thought you were saying no to Jake becuase you really thought he would not work out. Now I know you have a hatered for him. Give me Jake over Brunell any day. I still say draft Pike in the 3rd/4th and let them fight for the backup roll. What could it hurt?

Can't say I'm surprised. He was awful this past season.

I still think Jake was a victim of the system. One receiver and a team built on defense and conservative playcalling. Fox can call a game to manage it but not to win it.

A victim of the system? All the Panthers ever asked him to do was drive the bus. The system was a victim of Jake. It takes a special player to average 2 INT's a game in with 'conservative playcalling'.

My God, how many INTs might he average throwing the ball down field?

I don't hate Jake, but this guy was never as good as his billing.

What can you say an uncapped year.

Saint_LB · 03-07-2010, 03:21 AM

Jake, Jake, bo bake,
banana fanna fo fake,
fee fi mo make...

JAKE

Yeah...I said it.

Doesn't mean I want him to be a Saint again...just always wanted to say it.

Crealtine · 03-07-2010, 03:40 AM

LMAO @ all who say Brooks is better than Delhomme. Tim Tebow can throw better than Brooks!! I would certainly welcome Delhomme as a backup. He's better than Brunell in my book. And somebody said only reason he was good was because of Steve Smith. Well we got Colston, Bush, Shockey, Meachum, Moore??, and Henderson. I'll that the Saints collective committee over Steve Smith although Smith is a BEAST!!
