No, really. The reason you don't take Brees off the field is:

a/ why? it's an insult. he runs the offense. he is the commander on the field and there is no reason to interrupt his drive with some stupid arse screwy gimmic play. that is just nonsense.

b/ drew brees

c/ drew brees

d/ drew brees

e/ drew brees

f/ drew brees

g/ drew brees

etc......

damn, i'm getting methodically drawn back into this shite.


i'm doing good though.....

it's hard when they look to draw that out of me, but i'm on to their wicked ways....



bad thing is, they've taken shots at the likes of you, mouth, and Ed, and ya'll never even took to name calling or insults. i don't particularly care for that. stay off my peeps, yeard.

I think Brunell can run a Sean Payton offense way better than Vick.

I would hope so, he's been in it a lot longer, but when I said Brunell or Harrington doesn't compare I meant sheer talent wise, Micheal Vick makes things happen when he's behind center, his biggest knock in ATL was that he is not a pocket passer and doesn't pass accurately, other than that they had no complaints because when he was there QB it was always fun, exciting times.

How do you know this? I would think it happens and vice versa.

---

Oh, it happens. But not a lot. Its hard to see with the Saints because they have to pass so much, but there are things called "running downs" which are situations that most teams run it. The Saints just havent had that luxury recently.

quote:

---

It happens alot.

---

On a running play? no, it doesnt happen a lot.


now on a passing play? sure. Picking up blitzes, chaning the scheme to protect one side if there is an overload, etc.

It doesn't happen too much on a running play. You dont change the blocking scheme of a running play that you practice all week. Esp at the line of scrimmage right before a play. The way you usually adjust is running the other way, which is a simple audible. And putting a man in motion is a simple read and adjustment by the QB as well, which is a built in option on a lot of plays already. Or you simply change the play all together.

I feel that a Brees pass is way more lethal then a Vick run....just my opinion.

---

That's not the point. Im talking the situation and the way the defense is thinking against each QB.

If you are playing the Saints, chances are you are expecting a pass. Why? Because you dont have to account for the running game.


My point is, with Vick in the game, the options are endless as far as confusing the defense between a run and a pass.

With Brees, not so much. He's either A)gonna pass, or B)hand the ball off for 2 yards.

Now you are just being difficult.

How? you are equating changes a QB makes at the line of scrimmage for a pass play and using it to talk about a running play.

running plays are not that complex. If you dont think a simple "lets run left instead of right because thats where the defenders are" is being difficult, then i have to question your knowledge. Because that happens, as simple as it may seem.



and geez ive gotten too far away from my main point

Vick is an inaccurate passer and doesn't handle the pressure of a heavy rush. So, when he's in there, it will be obviously a run, fake run, crazy gimmicky run, whatever. Teams will come after his arse like white on dirty rice. Wait....

Well, anyway you get what i'm saying. Teams will come with heavy pressure and not allow any kind of run and force Vick to throw, which he won't. They won't design the plays that way and he'll have to ad lib which = Vick running and getting tackled.


it's all good. i call it done deal with name calling, bull crap. but:

1 year? alot longer? no, not really. (5 months)

3 or 4? yeah, i'd agree....

and thats when he drops back to pass and throws a TD.

the whole point of it all. You have a ton of options


frick its really not that difficult

exactly, his knock is not being accurrate, but he is a dangerous thrower, he burned a lot of teams when he played for Atlanta, but I give up, your own your own.

very true.

He's no Drew Brees, but people forget how dynamic he was.

FIXED.

You cannot say that until we see him play. Same thing with Dan Morgan. We hope he regains his old form when he was at his best, but we can only hope right now.
