Jake Delhomme to Visit Saints (Cleveland signs Jake)

gumbeau · 03-12-2010, 06:13 AM

Delhomme is too dumb for the Saints offense and his arm is a noodle.

And his is a whining crybaby.

I would puke every time I saw him in a Saints uniform.

Brunell is very active on the sidelines and very involved. He is a great addition to the QB team while Jake would be sitting on the bench crying about how his milk was warm in his cereal.

Just say no.

We need a competent backup. Brunell is way beyond his "sell by date" - Even if it is not Delhomme - we need someone else at backup!!

I try to not even think about Brooks and Haslet too much.

It is like being in a nightmare while awake on purpose.
Thank goodness those days are gone.

Jake isn't as bad as people give him credit for. He has a winning record.

I like the Jake backup scenario if the price is right. He could actually come in the game and move the team if we needed him to. Brees could care less about who his #2 or #3 is. Its all about team success, PERIOD! This team needs a good backup if Brees goes down and Delomme would do a good job.

This is wrong. The backup quarterback plays a vital role in this offense and Brunell has done an exceptional job in that role. Delhomme is a dope and would be nothing more than a body in a uniform.

I much prefer a smart experienced backup able to see things for Drew when Drew is on the field rather than some fan favorite who everyone hopes never takes a snap and obviously has trouble reading a defense. Delhomme would be no help to Drew.

Im with you there. All I know is we need a quality back up.

Whoever we sign, I just want them to be someone who doesn't harbor resentment towards the Saints organization, and who is committed to keeping the team on track as a quality football team. He needs to really WANT to be here!

I'm concerned with him being left handed...I can live with Mark being "older." I'll have to wait to see Chase in PS since I haven't seen him make any throws. I have faith in Payton, but switching from the Cardinals game with Drew's timing and being right handed to Mark and being left handed in 1 week in the playoffs against the Vikes....I don't see that working out too well.
