Notes.... Now that head coach Jim Haslett has said hell pull Aaron Brooks if he plays poorly, the question becomes how long a rope the coach will give his talented but mistake-prone quarterback.
An interception? Two?
One fumbled snap, or a ball that slips out of the cocked right hand, or one thats dislodged by a blind-side hit?
Or will it take just a couple of unsuccessful offensive drives?
According to New Orleans Times-Picayune staffer John DeShazier, only Haslett knows for sure But with the New York Giants rolling in for a nationally televised Sunday night game, the rest of us are about to find out.
Perhaps it will take just one good game to bring future absolution for Brooks, whose play is being critiqued as never before in a career that has been filled with scrutiny.
Or maybe a strong performance buys Brooks nothing more than another week, when the evaluation process begins anew, with the coach still prepared to make a change in upcoming games if he feels its necessary.
As ESPN.com insider Len Pasquarelli noted Thursday, coaches and team officials are increasingly frustrated by the inconsistency under center. Brooks, who leads the NFL in total fumbles (13) and fumbles lost (10), has accounted for 18 of the teams 26 turnovers and is simply careless with the football too often.
Pasquarelli added: "It just seems that Brooks has very little pocket awareness, lacks concentration at times and isnt a big-game player."
And if you believe DeShazier, the feeling at team headquarters is if a change is to be made, better sooner than later, to see if backup Todd Bouman has the goods, if Brooks somehow can settle down by watching, or if the Saints need to scrap everything and start over at quarterback.
But Brooks isnt the only problem in New Orleans, and to believe otherwise is to look for the most convenient target. The truth is there are more Saints who have played worse this year than last, when the team caved like a rickety mine
