If they let Hebert in then Brooks should absolutely be in.

I hate aaron brooks more-so that any football player ever....however he deserves to be there and I would be happy he was included.
he did do some good for us, despite my dislike for him.

As long as there's no Haslett in the hall, I'm cool wit it.

Dude gets shite on so much by Saints fans and it's a shame. Definitely deserves it.

I'd say that's more of an indictment on our history of qbs rather than a feather in Brooks' cap. Not a HOF worthy player.

Joe Horn yes
Aaron Brooks close but no
Aaron Brooks close but no

As much as Brooks fricked up and I wish Blake would have never gotten injured.. He should be in the saints hof.. no doubt.. Haterade aside

Yes he should be there. But I can easily see arguments on both sides. If you're going to hate anyone you can hate Haslett and our QB coach and OC. They tried to force Brooks into a pocket role after it was clear his skill set was a scramble athlete. That Katrina season sure was rough as hell to watch though. I still have nightmares about that Dolphins game in Death Valley

I was there and saw the ugly confrontation at the ground floor elevator landing between drunk Saints fans who paid to watch that abysmal show and Benson and Tagliabue. Benson sure wanted to pick up and move the Saints, don't ever forget that. A Fredo move from Benson.

As to AB and the Saints HOF? Whatever. Haslett and the organization did let him down as far as support, etc., Brooks wasn't prepared individually for that big of a stage with the attendant pressure.

Stat-wise, Brooks should be in the Saints HOF. But like someone had mentioned earlier, the perception of him might stop that. I'm not a fan of him whatsoever, but he was the first QB in almost a decade that showed a little consistency here and there.
As far as Haslett, the man let Wayne Gandy keep a recliner in the locker room. That just tells me he let his players run the team instead of the coaching staff, which is also why we did nothing but settle for mediocrity in that time span.

It's not that simple. And I dont hate the guy. People who do hate him for that i assume did not lose anything in Katrina, didnt live here for it, or are too young to remember it.

outdoing shitty predecessors doesn't really make you HOF worthy. Now with local HOFs sometimes guys just get in because they were beloved by the fans, obviously that isn't the case for AB either.
