What is Brooks' margin for error?

And in the most recent storyline coming from ESPN :

Some coaches and team officials in New Orleans are increasingly frustrated by the inconsistent play of quarterback Aaron Brooks, who leads the NFL in total fumbles (13) and fumbles lost (10). Brooks has accounted for 18 of the team\'s 26 turnovers and is simply careless with the football too often. The team has invested a lot of money in the veteran quarterback but, justifiably so, coach Jim Haslett took Brooks to task this week. It just seems that Brooks has very little pocket awareness, lacks concentration at times and isn\'t a big-game player. There is a chance, if the Saints fall completely out of the playoff chase and Brooks doesn\'t heed warnings, that New Orleans will give Todd Bouman a start before the end of the season. Bouman recently signed a new contract extension that included a bonus of $1.255 million, with base salaries of $725,000 (in 2004), $750,000 (2005) and $700,000 (2006), There are workout bonuses of $25,000 for all three years and a $300,000 roster bonus for 2006.
