this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Delhomme did one thing wrong....he was born in Louisianna. And anytime you have a local kid on the bench and the starter isn\'t in the Pro Bowl, you get a QB controversy. Delhomme has to be commended for his professionalism ...

Delhomme did one thing wrong....he was born in Louisianna. And anytime you have a local kid on the bench and the starter isn\'t in the Pro Bowl, you get a QB controversy. Delhomme has to be commended for his professionalism in not fueling that fire and willingly accepting his rank and performing above par when on the field. He\'s a competitor with a huge desire to win and unfortunately the coaching staff only had two alternatives and neither a good for the team. Keep him and have the fans creating disention and jeoprodizing the confidence of the starter, or dump him and get a new back up. We all know what choice was made.
I would like see Jake be a successful QB in this league but I want no one to be successful at the expense of a win by our team. To cheer for Delhomme to show us up is not the work of a Saints fan. To hope to see our starter fail is not the work of a Saints fan. You can criticize our players all you want but to wish defeat to prove your point means it\'s time to shop for a new jersey. Any Saints fan can predict the worst, but be glad to eat his words if the opposite ocurs. |

Jake is a very likable guy and most of us are cheering for him. We\'re just tired of the \"Brooks sucks, Saints suck, because look at Delhomme in Carolina\" posts that have been embedded into our skulls now for 8 stinking months now. If Delhomme does well thats all you will hear in every post regardless of the original topic by the 5th reply. |

Jake will play ok, but he won\'t need to be great, Davis is going to run through our guys like they were wet toilet paper.
I\'m just glad its not in prime time |

I forgot another thing....
WR Steve Smith must be accounted for on special teams and in the slot as wide receiver.... He\' brash and cocky; but he\'s got game.... |

Just call me a glutton for punishment, but I\'ll be at the game with my Saints garb on. Then I\'ve got a 3 hour ride home with Panthers, Steelers and Cowboy fans.

I don\'t bash everyone on this board. I think BMG and FWTex have valid, lucid, ideas that makes sense. Unlike BillyC and his brethren who still think that Brooks and Haz shouldn\'t hit the road. Here\'s the Carolina game in a nutshell:
Brooks comes out cold yet again and Carolina gets excellent field position in the first half while putting up a 17-3 lead at half. Haz FINALLY sits Brooks for Bouman and Bouman actually has some moments, but not enough. Davis takes over for the offense and Peppers, Jenkins (with his new contract in hand) takes over for the defense. Jakes ends up going 15-21 for 235 yards and two tds. Brooks goes 4-16 for 115 yards and one int. Bouman-20-34-267 yards and 2 touchdowns. Final Score- Carolina-34-Saints 17. |

Sure, sure, guy. Try to use your \"attempt\" at witty banter to hide the true fact you are brain washed. You \"pro Brooks/Haz\" guys are the one\'s that can\'t take another posters critizism. You lash out at every oportunity. I really don\'t choose to trade verbal barbes with a intelligence deprived malcontent. Not to mention, your moniker of \"cocksuc*er\" shows the lack of emotional develpment one needs to carry on a mature conversation. As far as \"cat with yarn\" I think you might take up that practice fulltime. You may just find it mentally stimulating. Good bye, poor sir. You truly have my sympathy.
