Brooks must put stamp on Saints

When Deuce McAllister went out with a high ankle sprain early in last Sunday's game against the 49ers, the Saints were in trouble. They were left with no running game, and their defense was banged up. They needed quarterback Aaron Brooks to step up and be a leader.

And he did. He played a good, disciplined game, getting rid of the ball quickly and throwing accurately. He completed 25 of 34 passes for 279 yards and was not intercepted. Most important, he produced when the game was on the line.
