Payton is a great coach but he really lucked out with Brees, I'd be interested to see what he could do with a rookie at the helm.

We did it once before with Manning. Every 30 years we seem to luck upon a great QB. Who knows, Super Bowl LXXXVI may be ours!

He lucked out by getting the QB he was pursuing?

I'm pulling for the young guy but I've got my reservations. Smash said earlier that Winston has had eye surgery and a year with Drew and Sean working on his weaknesses and I hope it pays off. But in the back of my mind he's still the same guy we laughed at before for his decision making. I hope he proves me wrong.

Regardless of improvement, there's no way he isn't a huge step down from one who was among the best to ever play the game. We've been spoiled.

Winston is the youngest player out there that has the potential to become our franchise Qb. He won’t be a Drew Brees, we won’t see a player like him in our lifetime but Winston can win us a Super Bowl if he can cut out the interceptions. He’s our best bet.

If we had our entire roster back I might entertain the idea briefly, but we are going to be a shell of what we were on both sides of the ball. He has the potential to be our QB, but given the "franchise" interpretation I use we have only had two of those in our history ... and, no, Bobby wasn't one of them.

Right and that's the thing. It won't matter who is under center in NO. Most will have unrealistic expectations that the next QB must perform like Brees. Passing the torch from one HOF (Montana/Young) to another is rare.

I'm excited to see what JW can do in this system with Payton. The tools are there with weapons around.

That's it! We have to temper our expectations and then see how the team does in the next couple of years. Drew has spoiled us without a doubt.

Everyone should want Winston to be “competing to be that guy”, I want every available QB “competing to be that guy”. That’s how to put the best talent available on the field.
