Jeff Blake Option

Just thought I would throw this out here. Jeff Blake as Backup. He's a UFA and could be had on the Cheap. What ya think?

o hell no--

I don\'t really have an opinion on this but why do you say no?

I\'ll tell ya this. I\'d feel much more comfortable with Blake than Bouman if Brooks went down.

For all the criticism, Brooks might be the most valuable player on this team. If Brooks were to go down for any length of time our playoffs chances would be ZERO!

Having a capable backup to Brooks is something that needs to be addressed.

Agree with Gumbo, Bouman is horrible. Blake is a lot better backup than Bouman

Blake being a veteran, and having played for New orleans and being available for the cheap might look attractive. Only issue that might arrive is the AB took his job one.

Blake is a back-up and thats it. At one time he was a good starter, but he needs to realize those days are over.......so he can come backup AB and we can send Booman back to the beach!!!

Brooks goes down in week 12. Blake comes in, leads us to another playoff victory. Poetic justice.

So, you\'re hoping Brooks gets hurt? I hear ya ..

our backup QB will be the FSU reject who will shortly thereafter be implicated in the largest game fixing scandal since the black sox...by betting on sully\'s weight..horn, the entire tight end core, and the defensive backfeild will all be implicated....meanwhile brooks will charge that he had no clue what was going on..but like pete rose-arrogance will not save him.
