I think the Ring of Honor/team HOF should mean more than just "club stats".

I voted yes, but not for stats. He should be in it for coming in as a backup and getting that first playoff win against at the time, the greatest show on turf. Nobody really gave him a chance in that game.

I remember the announcers almost laughing before the game. It was the biggest milestone for the Saints up until that point. Towards the end though it was just painful to watch and I agree, couple that with the smiling and it was sheer frustration because nobody else was smiling except him.

Yes, Yes and Yes!

Did lead to first playoff victory and had some good stats. I voted yes. I do think he deserves it more than certain other players who will probably get in just because of name recognition. Sucks for him because he was followed by the Breesus era which I think skews opinions sometimes, only human. No where near elite but did a lot for the franchise. Though I will be the first to admit, I make Aaron Brooks jokes like a motherf*cker.

btw, way to wake the dead!

For you stat people:

56.5% completion percentage
123 TD
92 INT
33 Fumbles

Let me type it one more time... 33 fumbles!!!

They guy is WAY overhyped because he got us to our first playoff game.
