Trade Delhomme

back to the Saints, so I can make him look like Johnny Unitas. I am the greatest QB coach/OC ever. Did mention I call my own plays. :D

Listen here fine young male, I am the ONLY coach around these parts.

With that said, we could trade Brees for Jake, Jake is past his prime and Brees is entering his own prime.

im with you on this one

I'm not.

All the stats in the world are meaningless if you don't win, and a lot of Brees yards this season have come because the team was playing from behind. Add in that I've seen nothing out of Brees to make me think he's the kind of winner in the playoffs that you need to be successful in the postseason. He might turnout to be someday, but I've seen nothing to show that yet.

what makes you think he can't win in the playoffs? Sure his record in the 4th quarter while playing from behind is horrible, but much of that can be attributed to the horrible defense the Saints play. He is miles ahead of Delhomme in almost every way. I don't dislike Delhomme, but anyone who thinks Jake is a better QB is delusional.

That's kind of a big deal, and it isn't all on the defense.

There's more to being a winning QB than pretty passes and good stats. If you doubt that, ask Cowboy fans (or Bronco fans for that matter).

A big part of my breakdown of Brees is that their one big playoff win with him owed a lot to the Eagles shooting themselves in the foot. Then when it came to the game against the Bears, Payton's game plan went away from the run (which was a Bears weakness at the game) and put the game in Brees hands. Needless to say, that didn't work.

I'll take ugly wins over losses with nice highlight reels any day.

Their are quarterbacks, coaches and teams that you can always count on to look really good in the regular season but not seal the deal in the playoffs. Such guys are annually getting awards and honors, but not rings.

Those aren't guys I want to follow.

I agree to a point. There are such things as intangibles, which Jake has oozing from his being. I'm a big Jake supporter, but to provide a bit of balance to the arguement, I have to agree that anyone who thinks Delhomme is better than Brees has lost their mind.

It takes 45 to win a game on Sunday, and last I checked, the Saints are 25th in scoring defense. The Saints are also 16 total points away from being 13-2 on the season. The 16 points represent the combined scoring differential in 5 of their losses. They gave up an average of 29 points per game in those losses.

To be consistent, one would have to blame Jake for the Giants loss, and the 300+ rushing yards allowed, to make a similar argument to yours, as it relates to Brees.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
