I think Bobby Hebert still lives in Louisiana, he\'s probably available.......

Better yet......John Fourcade...

St. Shrume,

A good question. I don\'t think that there is anyone available WITH A PROVEN TRACK RECORD who is better than Brooks. I am also not a Brooks hater. I think to answer your question, someone should look to the second stringers and see if anyone is ready to rise up (e.g. Jake two years ago). I\'m sure few here are \"in the know\" enough to suggest someone, but that certainly doesn\'t mean there is no such person.

Either way, Brooks is doing just fine! (That ought to stir someone up.)

JKool -- I know for a fact you aren\'t a Brooks hater. But, make no mistake, there are Brooks haters. Some of \'em are just smarter than others.

You have different levels of Brooks folks:

1. Folks that openly admit they hate Brooks: BrooksMustGo and saintz08.
You know where these type of people stand. They want Brooks gone no matter what.

2. The hidden agenda folks: (you know who you are)
These folks want to appear as though they are unbiased. These are the people you have to watch out for. They critique everything from completion % to wonderlic scores to touch passes, to reading defenses, to how he sounds when he\'s being interviewed. In other word: They just look for ANYTHING to complain about. But they take the stand they don\'t hate Brooks. Maybe not, but something sticks out to me as being odd. Maybe, it\'s just my imagination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3. The devils advocate folks: (you know who you are too)
These folks will argue both sides. They really aren\'t sold on Brooks but they aren\'t convinced he can\'t get the job done either.

I\'ve bore 3 of Brooks\' illegitimate children... I have reason to love the guy, lol

GumboBC · 07-13-2004, 02:01 PM

What do the childern look like. Do they have nice smiles??

Oh, I forgot the last group of Brooks folks.

4. Supports Brooks to the death.
That would be me. I won\'t include anyone else. I\'ve been on the Brooks\' wagon from day one, and I plan on riding it where ever it takes me... :P

The destination for that wagon is straight to the Audubon park flag football sandlot championships I\'d wager.

Maybe, maybe not. But, I know where that wagon is going to take me this season. And that\'s watching Aaron Brooks as the starting QB of the Saints. Those are the games I\'ll be buying tickets for. Maybe you should see if you can pick up a couple of tickets to the \"sandlot\" league and see what\'s going on over there... :P

I think I fall in category 5: Brooks is good enough to do the job, but he still needs to improve more. Specifically the fumblitis that he seemed to have caught last year. As good as he has been, and as much improvement as we\'ve seen in the last three years, he still as of yet has put it all together. Here\'s the season I\'d like to see (along with his best so far in parenthesis for a full season of play):

1. 4000 yards (3832)

2. 30+ touchdowns (27)

3. 12 interceptions or less (8!) along with 5 or less lost fumbles (2!).

4. 90.0 or better QB rating (88.8)

5. Make the Pro Bowl (alternate so far right?)

6. Lead the team to winning the division. (check. Let\'s do it again)

7. Lead the team to at least the NFC championship game. (Won Saints only playoff victory. A good start)

Now of course he can\'t do it all by himself. We need to remain relatively healthy. The defense needs to step up. The receivers needs to hang on to the ball and the line needs to gel relatively quickly with their modifications.

But I believe the Brooks is capable of such a year. He has his own talent along with the rest of the offense to make it happen.

But Brooks and everyone else needs to step up to make it happen. He\'s been close enough on his personal stats to pull it off. The question is can he put it all together in a single year?
