FoxSports.Com NFL QB Corps Ranking

I asked my fellow Saints fans some time ago how our backup QBs look as I don't know much about Brunell or Harrington.  FoxSports.com has an article that ranks the QB Corps for this upcoming season.  Interesting to note about the #4 Ranking of the Saints is that the emphasis (as far as the backups are concerned) is not on the QBs themselves, rather on the talent surrounding them.  Anyone of our recievers/TEs are capable of catching garbage passes (especially Lance Moore).  I just pray that with our track record of injuries these past several years, nothing happens to the Brees.  And, just as importantly, I pray he doesn't park in his past successes and end up like Aaron Brooks.  But that's a whole nuther discussion.

Positional Power Rankings: QB packages

 

by Adrian Hasenmayer, FoxSports.com

 

4. SAINTS
Drew Brees
Mark Brunell
Joey Harrington
Drew Brees is the fuel and engine for the Saints' high-powered offense. Consider that New Orleans led the NFL in scoring in '08 despite injuries to Marcus Colston, Reggie Bush and Deuce McAllister. If Brees goes down, the Saints should/could conceivably still sneak into the playoffs if all of their offensive weapons are standing. Mark Brunell's well past his glory days, but in the Saints' system should at least keep them competitive, as should Harrington. While New Orleans doesn't have the perfect package, they're hoping that one of the two veterans can win the job comfortably in training camp.
