Ok, so you're saying that last year should have been the year for the Saints. To further your point, you mention Donovan McNabb, which I believe to be a decent point of comparison.

Yet, it appears that you fail to realize that Aaron Brooks has not had 3 full years as a starter. His first start was after the halfway point of the 2000 season, which, by the way, also coincided with the Saints first ever playoff win. Brooks battled for the starting position, and won, in 2001. Last year, he started off great, even hopefully by your standards, but was injured in the second Bucs game (which the Saints won).

So, I agree with you that it takes at least 3 years to fully begin to grasp an offense, but I hope you can see why there's a sense of optimism this year.
