Brooks for Brees?

It\'s all good. But, I only used stats as part of my evaluation for Brees.

I also pointed out why I felt Brees had his ONLY productive year:

1. San Diego had the 3rd ranked rush defense. What\'s ours?
2. Most of the production in San Diego\'s passing game came from the TE (Antonio Gates) position. Not the wide receivers. Antonio Gates accounted for 934 yds and and almost half (13TDs) of Brees\' 27TDs. Think Boo Williams is capable of that?
3. LaDainian Tomlinson rushed for 1335 yards and a WHOPPING 17 TDs. And Tomlinson caught 53 passes for 441 yards and 1 TD.
4. The Chargers offensive line was very good.

You put Brees behind our offensive line. Give him Boo Williams instead of Antonio Gates and take away all those TDs that Tomlinson made. And give Brees our defense ... and how many more wins to we get with Brees? Hmmmmm.... Tell me guys?

The main thing I wanted to point out is how vastly differnt the Saints and Chargers offense is.

In San Diego, the passing comes from the TE and running back primarily.

The Saints offenses stretches the field with their speedy WRs. Can Brees adapt to that? Maybe. Maybe not. He hasn\'t proven he can.
