The NEW Rumor!!! HUGE!!!
Now you all know by now that I am all about being positive...however...
There is NO way that Aaron Brooks is one of the top 5 QBs in the league. 1.) Peyton Manning 2.) Tom Brady 3.) Donovan McNabb 4.) Daunte Culpepper 5.) Micael Vick Well, it was tough coming up with #5 because of the lack of stellar QBs in the league but it\'s clear that Vick is better than Brooks. Feel free to disagree. |

Its not just AB either. This whole coaching staff keeps changing the pieces of the puzzle to try and build a team that specifically plays to their system. Here\'s a thought, how about adjusting your system to fit the atheletes you have. Notice how the defense played much better when Haslet said, \"we just simplified some things\"? Don\'t design the space shuttle when all you need is a racecar. |

If virtually everyone here on the forum, and all of the ESPN analysts knows that Brooks is a worthless bum, don\'t you think that other NFL GMs know it too? So either Brooks has value as a starting QB and could be swapped, or Brooks is not worth it and can\'t be swapped. So which is it? SFIAH. |

But objectively if he were as football stupid as folks try to pin on him, he simply would not be able to produce the numbers that he has produced in the last 4 years. I\'m a stat boy, so here\'s some stats for you: In the last 4 seasons only 2 NFL QBs have thrown for 3500+ yards and 20 TDs in each of those 4 seasons. And Brooks is one of them. I\'m not saying that it makes the guy great. However he does have what it takes to get the job done. The second is related to the defense. In the last 4 seasons when the Saints have held the opposition to 20 points or less, the team is 20-8. Of course this includes the last 4 games of last season. Last season the team was 5-1 when giving up less than 21 points and 3-7 when giving up 21 points or more. So it\'s simple math to me. Leave Brooks in place and improve the defense so that it can consistenty hold teams to under 21 points.
Agreed again on protecting the football. It\'s those half dozen panic plays during the season that drives me nuts.

SaintFanInATLHELL,
The One flaw in what you just said, is IF th QB does not manage crucial points of the game well, He can put the Defense on there backs several 3 and outs, will wear them out, a turn over on or near your own goal line gives the opponets Oppertunity to rise to the magic 20 number.. , Fumbles Hurt bad, A Qb can deflate a whole team with bad descision making........ Brooks is Verry capable of taking care of the positive aspects of the game, But he is also real good at adding to the negatives to......... one step forward and two steps back....... |
