Brooks report card
Season ending report card on Brooks :
PLAYERS TO WATCH Aaron Brooks needs to regain the swashbuckling style that carried him early in his career and during the first half of this season. Brooks struggled down the stretch and appears to have lost his confidence. His completion percentage and decision-making fell off the charts, dragging the entire offense with it. Brooks has big-play skills, but he sometimes falls into bad habits, such as backpedaling when passing and other poor footwork. Like many young quarterbacks, he sometimes struggles to read defenses and relies to much on improvisation. He has playmakers at every position. There are no excuses left. Wide receiver Donte' Stallworth looks like a future star. He caught eight touchdown passes despite limited playing time. Stallworth will benefit from a full offseason in the team's program, in which he'll be exposed to the West Coast offense from the ground up. He and Joe Horn should form one of the most explosive receiving tandems in the league next season. Someone forward to Haslett , before he spends another clueless night staring at the screen . There are no excuses left !!! |
