At least Aaron Brooks tried his hardest to help guide & take care of the organization as their former quarterback. He led in rushing yards & the Saints first playoff win. I love Drew Brees sure. But, I wish people should stop bashing him and look at the positivity that him & Blake accomplished. THis is coming from a Browns/Cowboys fan. 757 Stand Up...
Keith poole and eddie kennison and the billy joe tandem..wow that's when I started becoming a saints fan as a 10 year old and being from L.A. we had no team..proud to be a Who Dat for life!
Jake was SO underused in New Orleans! I'm a life-long Saints fan, but he should have had more opportunity with the Saints. I was happy when Jake Delhomme made it to the Super Bowl with the Panthers. I wish they had won. But I'm VERY happy and proud that our Saints won the Super Bowl in 2009!
Blake could have been a fine QB for the Saints were not for a foot injury versus the Raiders. I think he would have been a better leader and QB than Brooks.
I remember Willie Whitehead, Kyle Turley, Aaron Brooks, RW 34, Donté Stallworth, Sammy Knight, Willie Roaf and Rickey Jackson, of course he used to be part of the dome patrol.
This was a good season and fun to watch as a season ticket holder but an insider recently commented about this team and said,” there was a lot of bad apples in this bunch.”
I can get with that idea, I mean to me they both sucked ass but I’d take Delhome over Aaron Brooks ignorant ass any day. And I mean ignorant in the aspect of Aaron Brooks throw a interception and then showin his teeth about it 😐, just dumb
In all fairness I think hasslet wasn't given much help he could of been a great coach with the saints. Sean Payton is one hell of a coach but let's be honest hasslet turned around the team before he came
They just didn't build off of what they had.They should have found a way to keep Laroy Glover, when he left that defense fell apart, offenses were running through the middle of our defense like crazy.
Are you kidding? Maybe they were heading in right direction, but Sean Payton came to a gutted team post Katrina. He rebuilt almost all the players, and deserves all the credit for rebuilding the Saints.
Mike Fontenot Explain that one, cause i remember there was a LOT of controversy behind the Ricky Williams pick, with the wedding dress pic and things like that. I’d like to know because It was a damned shame that Ricky busted like that, and people Despised Ditka for that. I never understood it, plus, I was only 9 at the time, And when my dad would bring me to school, I would hear Buddy D ranting about it on morning radio.
poor Benson! he made so many mistakes when ditka was the coach! trading a whole draft for Ricky Williams! who does that! if Mueller and Haslett kept up with the right quarterback and not losing Ron zook to Florida in 2002 they might have been a sleeper in the early 2000s
Well when you have brooks a underachiever who was very inconsistent and never could put it together that will give you a bad record he admitted later on that he should have went with delhomme over brooks
