I’d say the 3 interceptions last week weren’t the best look.

7 TD’s
6 interceptions
65% completion percentage
885 yards

That’s his last four playoff games. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, let that had been Teddy Bridgewater’s stats over the span of four games. He’d be talked about like the second coming of Aaron Brooks.

I don't get it dude...I think everyone was appreciative of what Teddy did while the starting HOF QB was injured. It wasn't as if Teddy led the stat columns this year in NC.

Also, it is very obvious Cooks didn't pan out with us, NE or the Rams and who knows about Houston, 4 teams in 6 or 7 seasons three of those with us. When players such as Cooks, even as Thomas has shown himself this year, that it is more about them than the team it is a problem.

Thomas is a stud receiver, but I must say his connection with Drew helped him gain his reputation in the league as Drew has done with many receivers in his career. Guys that have gone on to not contribute much with other QB's.

Has Brees declined, yes, have we had any viable options to start in his place, no.

If our cap space is not what it is, it would be great to give a guy like Stafford a chance at a second life, but it is what it is. If the frog had wings he wouldn't bump his on ground when he hopped.
