There's always a first. I wonder if it hurt him.

Running is the key

If we run the ball well,it will take pressure off Brooks.

Brooks may turn out better than we think but he's gotta prove it on the field!

Thanks for the link Bro. Brooks this year, Walters the next would be fine with this fan. Let the rest of the team come together through this year and then lets get the future behind center. Of course, the preseason is still young and anything can happen before opening day...

Sweet article. As much as we'd all like to see Walter be the starter, I honestly think Brooks gives us the best chance to win right now. Maybe not 2,3,4 years down the road, but right now he is the choice.

"I don't pay attention to what somebody else says about a guy," he said. "What you present to me is what I'm going to see. It's been all good so far.""-Coach Art Shell.


I LOVE this quote. This is exactly how I feel about the situation. Personally I hope whoever the QB is, tears up the league, and comes out blasting.

I'm glad Aaron Brooks is here, and I hope he reaches his highest potential here for the Oakland Raiders.

Having a qb like Brooks playing ahead of the up and coming Andrew Walter is almost a blessing in disguise. This will all pay off in the near future. Brooks never really had any talent behind him in N.O. other than Horn. He has a much better chance of showing what he can do for the team and for us long suffering fans.
Mr. Aaron Brooks....this is for you!!

The offense lines up in a U, with the quarterback at the open end and everyone bunched together and angled toward him.
