BROOKS LAUGHING: ITS A GAME! If you don\'t have fun doing it then you shouldn\'t be doing it.... Most of here are cajuns I assume isn\'t that like our way of life???

BrooksMustGo

It looks like Willie Roaf is having a pro-bowl year.

After yesterday, Turley looks to be on the way to having a good year too.

Seems like the biggest problem with our line is Jim Haslett. Our coaching staff is the cancer in the locker room.

Fire all of the rascals and see if we can bring someone of quality in and see what we can get out of a Brooks trade.

I don\'t understand how it could possibly hurt to give Bouman a shot. How could it hurt? By the way - the Saints had a fiery leader. I know I\'m gonna catch it for this, but... his name was Jake Delhomme. Anyone watch any of his games. He plays like Favre. Fiery, not always pretty, but he wins. He hits linemen back, he blocks on running plays. Give me that any day over a guy that can shrug off any interception. I don\'t care how \"laid back\" or \"care free\" you are, if you\'ve never gotten mad enough by your performance or your team\'s to throw your helmet or b*tch someone out - there\'s a problem. That\'s just my opinion.

WhoDat, I totally agree. I think we can all agree \"that business as usual\" aint gonna get it done. Brooks is probably the best athelete of the QB`s we have now, but his execution looks horrible. We need some radical changes and the first should be to bench Brooks.(and BC i`m not saying that just because I hate Brooks, I have other reasons too) The second, our defence should start running a blitz scheme on every passing situation. I cannot understand for the life of me why our staff decided it was a good idea to only pressure Peyton with our front line and try to zone cover the best arm in the NFL. I would have had somebody coming after Peyton every down. He would have gotten some passes off, but not all of `em.
Did you see that little screen trap the Colts burned us on about 3 times?....certainly we have some plays like that in our arsenal that we should be using too. Have you noticed how Haslett will comment when teams run \"trickery plays\" on us? He calls them bull**** plays. Does he think there is some kind of honor in playing strickly missonary style? I say it`s time for a little \"razzle dazzle\", cause \'Duece up the middle\' is being defended and not producing enuff 1st downs....especially in the first half.

*** AB has a right to express himself, and I have a right to dis-like his expression***
Of course the other teams have been lighting up the score on us, but let`s consider the fact that AB and the offense has NOT kept the ball long enuff in the first half to keep the other team`s offense off the field. In the first half it`s been 3 and punt, 3 and punt.... Now be it AB`s fault or the OLine or poor play calling or a combination of all 3. It still rest on AB to make it happen...he`s done it before, now we expect it. The truth is AB is just not a winner. When we get a QB that has a \' refuse to lose\' attitude, we will all see the difference. Now, will this solve all our team`s problems if this happens? NO.... but if our offense is on the field...the other team`s offense is not.
For the Love of Mary can we please start Bouman or J.T.....somebody! :casstet:

Billy you are an
When it comes to football you know nothing.
Can\'t blame the offensive line on this one....
They didn\'ty ship three starters away in three years...
Roaf, Neole, Turley
GM, HC, OC
Offensive line\'s fault...
Offensive line have no control over calling audibles when the defense is blitzing into the gap your running in..
Offensive lineman have no chance to catch balls thrown perfectly at them...
And their are only five offensive lineman, when the otehr team sends six people who do you think picks up the other guy...
Oh wait i forgot you don\'t know football. the answer is another player on the team (sometimes that can be a Running Back, or Tight End)

Look in the mirror, It\'s nice to be adie hard fan... But it also helps to be rational.
Ask yourself... How did we expect to get better when we got rid of four Pro Bowlers?


Name calling? I hoped you guys knew better.

frankeefrank:
That was more of a personal attack don\'t you think? Offensive line also has to communicate and see that all the defense is accounted far... which could have accounted for Brooks getting blindsided. Mentioning the O-line sucks doesn\'t mean its ultimately their fault. Means possible they need better coacing or an over-haul and that coaches screwed up. A professional football linemen should not have to be told to block, block and block until you hear the whistle... they opt to standing around to whatch the play. Your taught that in high school...

WhoDat

DFB - I agree with you, but don\'t you think Billy and epecially Saintfan blame shift? I\'m sure we all skew things to better fit our opinions, but... Actually, recently Billy has been better at admitting Brooks\' faults. He still believes that he is a good NFL QB, but acknowledges there are a lot of... we\'ll say \"question marks\" for this guy. Saintfan thinks he\'s the second coming of Jesus and the greatest football player ever. My point is, sometimes members of this board shift blame to or away from people who don\'t deserve it. I think Frankee is upset b/c Billy has been really good at blame shifting away from Brooks for a while now.

No one is suggesting that the coaches, line, defense, dropped passes, etc, etc, etc. aren\'t part of the problem. The difference is that guys like me are lumping Brooks in with that group and saying he is PART of the problem, whereas others on this board refuse to put the slightest amount of blame on Brooks and point at those other things as the reason for Brooks\' poor play. I think that is ridiculous.

The fact of the matter is, this offense just isn\'t being productive this year. I think there is enough blame to go around and this includes Aaron Brooks. But, for anyone to think that a change of QB\'s is the answer to all the problems on offense, well........ I think you fooling yourself. Now if you want to change QB\'s in HOPES of providing some kind of spark, then that\'s possible. I wish the only problem we had on offense was Aaron Brooks. I wish we could put Bouman in and the problems on offense would magically go away, but I can\'t see that happening. For those of you that think so, we\'ll see....

What would probably happen is the defense would give up 3 touchdowns and force Bouman into known passing situations and the pass blocking would break down and Bouman would struggle.

In this league any team can win if they have a decent running game and a decent QB. But, only if they have a defense that can hold the opposing team to a respectable number on the scoreboard. And, the fact of the matter is we don\'t have that. This offense probably would be just as productive as last year if they were not playing catch up all the time.
