Brooks looking for a new deal?

I support our TEAM Venturi, not just individual players, although I do have my favorites. If a member of this TEAM has delusions of grandeur and a salary that don\'t match his performance, I am not obligated to support that player to the detriment of my team. I feel Brooks is a detriment to the TEAM. Doesn\'t matter if he is my qb. Along those lines, we should all have supported Steve Walsh, both Billy Joes and Heath Shuler no matter how bad they were cause they were our TEAM\'s qb. You can\'t tell me that\'s true can you?

Also having gone to a game where the o-line absolutely was not the problem and Brooks was, I put little stock in a \"leader\" who will throw the rest of his TEAM under the bus. I don\'t want a guy like that collecting a large salary on the TEAM I love.

You have hit the right chord there. This guy is NOT a TEAM player. It\'s about AB and nothing else. Now, that said, he is not totally at fault for saying and doing all of this stuff. Remember, Hazlett, Big Mule, & McCarthy stuck by him and made him DA MAN!! over both Blake and Delhomme, and then shipped in Todd(Mr. Inconsistent) Bouman as a \"backup?\" The trouble is is that Brooks honestly believes all of this tripe he\'s serving, because he\'s never had to honestly compete with anyone else for his job. Hazlett was too afraid of a QB controversy and played him hurt. That\'s not AB; that\'s Hazlett and probably McCarthy.

Playoffs or not, this guy needs to be shown the door. Also, before all of you other \"AB DA MAN\" crowd shows up and says: Who will we replace AB with? My answer is: \"I don\'t know, but it has to be better than this!\" San Diego will keep Brees, but there are other interim QB\'s that are coachable and don\'t cause the same mistakes, fumbles, broken plays, fall downs, missed handoffs, poor throws, low throws, throws with lack of touch, inaccurate throws behind or too low for a receiver. That\'s not the O-line. That\'s poor fundamentals by a QB. Period!! We have had 4 miserable, inconsistent, sloppy, lazy years from this slug. I\'m for some new blood. Win or lose, just consistent. :exclam:
