I hear they need a few new guys to change out the urinal pucks... these two sound perfect.

That is like asking if you want dumb or dumber as the backup QB.

No way.....

They'd both overthrow the urinal and hit the toilet.

IF I had to choose thats a BIG IF, I would choose Brooks because he can run. Collins is a sitting duck back in the pocket and reminds me of lead feet Grbac.

The last thing I want is to replace a bad Collins with a worse Collins.

How's this for a novel idea? Patrick Ramsey?

I'd rather have Joan Collins for backup QB. Drinking a lot of Tom Collins.

That's like asking me if I want to get kicked in the left nut or the right nut.

Although I'd have to go with the one who hasn't been a Raider. QB, I mean; neither one of my nuts has ever been to Oakland.

I'm thinking Aaron Brooks might end up being Oakland's starter this year now that they missed out on Culpepper. Vince Young will need a year or two on the bench before he's ready to start for the Faiders.

Joey Harrington is probably going to be available now that the Lions have signed Jon Kitna.

I wouldn't mind Harrington if he's cheap. Has starting experience and working under Green may be just what he needs to get over the head case he developed in Detroit. I actually wanted to see us draft him.

Brooks would be a great back-up QB. He generally puts up respectable numbers, and has a knack for big plays. If I'm an opposing team and Green goes down, I'd be nervous about seeing Brooks come trotting onto the field.

Kerry Collins would be a slight impovement over Todd Collins. I'd take him as a back-up.

Kind of an interesting stat I heard on the radio today, comparing Culpepper to Aaron Brooks.

Both have been in the league since 1999, and Aaron Brooks has 120 career TD passes and 84 career INTs, while Culpepper has 135 TD passes and 86 career INTs.

I'm not suggesting he's better than Culpepper or that he should be a starting QB in the league next year, but as a back-up you could do worse than Aaron Brooks.

Harrington might be an OK backup for someone. I'd love to see Holmgren and Zorn work with him..

I'd rather see Harrington or Ramsey. But Brooks probably would be a great back-up.

I feel pretty much the same way.

Brooks biggest problem was having absolutely no line and injuries to the rest of his offense. He's just not the kind of QB that can carry a team.

Collins is the very definition of a QB who's only as good as his line. With good protection he's fun to watch.

Behind our line he'd be an outstanding B/U...

How about Casey Printers? I don't understand why we can't give the guys we have now a chance to do it if they suck then we can always get a good vet to come in in TC....but if I had to choose...Brooks, can be an awesome QB with good protection which he sorely lacked on N.O.

:hmmm:
I bet there are intangibles that set them apart. Like poise, leadership, or quick adlibbing talent. Quarterbacking is more than just passing stats. That said, however, I think Brooks could be a pretty good ad reliable back up. I'd be happy if the Chiefs signed him for that role. that said still, I'm still holding out hope that we would seriously go after Patrick Ramsey, especially now that two of his suitors (Miami and Detroit) are out of the picture.
