AB in Saints HoF

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I'm sure I'll offend. Whatever. He absolutely belongs in the Saints HoF. Ab-SO-Lutely beongs. Anybody who thinks otherwise is a moron. Offense was never our problem during his tenure. Most of the AB hate - I mean the real AB ...

Re: AB in Saints HoF

I'm sure I'll offend. Whatever.

He absolutely belongs in the Saints HoF. Ab-SO-Lutely beongs.

Anybody who thinks otherwise is a moron.

Offense was never our problem during his tenure. Most of the AB hate - I mean the real AB hate - came from those who wanted Delhomme, and they used every excuse in the book, even going to far as to blame AB for our sorry defense. Determined to replace what at best they called "average" with another "average" because he was from here. BS is what it was/is.

He belongs. End of story. Period. Paragraph.

GOOD FOR YOU AB! I wish I could be there to see it.

Then I'm a moron.
In the "Brooks era" we were 45-51.
He had 120 TD's vs 84 ints. He also lost 23 fumbles. That's 107 turnovers in a little over 5 seasons. His career passing rating is 78.5

Stellar numbers that clearly merit honoring.

We also averaged nearly 30 points a game while he was here, had a crap o-line and to say the defense was sorry would be kind. One thing I've learned is haters gonna hate. Rock right on. He is by many measures the 2nd be QB we've ever had. I could argue the same point I've argued a thousand times, but the haters will hate in spite of reason. I will celebrate with him. You can hate on him some more. He won't lose any sleep...and neither will I.

Our best year under Brooks we averaged 27 ppg; other years it was closer to 22 ppg. His last 3 years we went 8-8, 8-8, 3-13.
You can celebrate mediocrity if you want, but get your numbers straight before you start calling people 'moron'

First off calling some one a moron for disagreeing with you is uncalled for. And calling him our 2nd best QB makes me wonder how far back you go as a fan. Billy Kilmer, Jim Everett, Archie Manning and even Bobby Hebert were all better than him. Stats don't tell the whole story.

No need for insults, it really doesn't further your argument. As far as being a I didn't hate the guy, I just hated having him for a QB.

Didn't Archie Manning throw more picks then TD'S in his career? Brooks was a good quarterback. He wasn't elite, but he was good...and better then Jake Delhomme. The game manager who benefitted from a stellar run game and outstanding defense. All Brooks ever had was Joe Horn and Deuce McAllister. The likes of Boo Williams and Jerome Pathon is what he was dealing with.

Don't even waste your time. I've wasted enough here trying to talk sense into some of these people.
