I would take Romo over Brees any day and twice on Sunday. Brees hits wide open guys all day. I don't like to say it much, but he is a product of the system, no doubt. Is he a very good qb, yes, but his numbers are super inflated by that system.

And add to that the fact that Brees looked very pedestrian against the Cowboys. I too would take Romo over Drew. I think Drew is a really good QB, but Romo too is a very good QB who needs to get just a little more help from his guys up front.

help from his Ol and a little more from his WR. When the TE is leading the list of receptions, you need better WR's . Romo would have had a killer season if Roy played this year. A little more from Crayton and no one was expecting much from Austin so all he did was add icing to a dull cake.

I don't really think I'd take anyone - not even their offensive line. After watching the Championship and Super Bowl, I think there is a parade in Dallas tomorrow if Flozell Adams had stayed healthy. Flozell is everyone's favorite target, but when he went down is when the wheels fell off in Minnesota. Granted, his replacement needs to be drafted this April, but there are probably only 15 people in the entire world who can play left tackle really well on the entire planet, and Flozell is one of them.

Give me Brees and their entire coaching staff and Dallas would have been playing last night and probably would have won by 21 or more.

:rolleyes:

good point, how many people who wanted him replaced wanted him replaced after seeing the affect he had on Allen?

Im hoping Brewster brings something to the Oline this year and I think everyone is excited that we have a player in Doug Free.

Just proves that football is a "team" sport.

The Cowboys may have more "individual" talent (which is not a fact anyway) but it is a team game and the Saints are hoisting the Lombardi.

He ran a fairly balanced offense. Some games they passed more than usual but they also ran the ball a lot...

Not many.

This can be hard to except for many here, but actually winning the SB takes as much luck as skill.

You have to be very skilled, you have to have a lot of talent.

IMO these teams had enough talent and could have won the SB just as easy as the Saints. Cowboys, Colts, Chargers, Vikings. Maybe a few others, but these for sure.

Does anyone not agree that the Vikings played as well or better than the Saints and just as easily could have won?
If Freeny doesn't tear an ankle ligament, I think the Colts win.

We've been in position to win a SB for the past three years and we will be next year.

Kind of an ironic thread topic since New Orleans (along with Miami) seems to be the spot where a lot of our "second rate" players go...

I think it is. If you put all 106 players from both teams in a hypotheticsl draft pool, we'd certainly have more players drafted higher.

Especially on defense. I respect the Saints, but come on.....Shanle, Gray? These were significant contributing starters for the Saints last night and wouldn't start for the Cowboys.

evans is a good guard he would start, Bush would get lots of touches, Colston would start over Williams, Smith would start, Thomas might be better than Choice or Barber but not Jones, Smith is a good DE for the 4-3 not the 3-4.

Brees obviously jumps to the front, and that is no slight at Romo. Sharper over Hamlin. Hartley over Sushiam..... Then who????? Colston??? We got Austin!!! No way we look at Shockey with Witten!! Randall Gay, Jabari Greer, Tracy Porter or Newman, Jenkins and Scandrick??

I just look at them and shake my head. Man for man, talent doesnt compare.

Saying at that is it the coaching or talent not playing to their potential??? I think I just answered my question!!!

I take Romo over Brees. The guy has had an average career excluding the last two seasons
