Best Saints QB Ever

Random thoughts on the subject -- Lets be clear here - there was one year that the Saints had the most explosive offense in the league -- 4 Offensive players made it to the pro bowl -- Archie Manning -- a man know as Wes Chandler -- Cocaine Chuck Mucnie -- Henry Childs as tight end and Tong G as a second starter at fullback. That year Archie played fantastic -- we didn\'t make the playoffs mainly because of the last game versus Oakland -- Snake Stabler threw 4 4th quarter TDs to beat the Saints 42-35. So Archie did have talent one year and played superbly. Now lets move to Brooks -- what is meant by by who is the better QB. Physical talent wise no doubt Brooks -- mentally, football smarts -- no doubt archie -- Now lets turn to stats -- very unfair top rank him on stats -- Less games per season played -- qbs and wide receivers did not have the same protection offered by the refs as they do now (which really opens up offenses). I could go on. In my mind -- Archie was the greatest Saint QB -- He stayed in New Orleans and played his heart out --- lets wait and see on Brooks ---
