The Saints are truly in trouble.

I'll let this play out at camp. Competition is always a good thing.

meh, the Saints are a pretty well built team regardless of which of the two is under center. heck, I’m equally as worried about the effects of losing Kwon, Jenkins, and Brown, imho, Brown is one of the best run stopping interior linemen in the league, extremely underrated. I do feel Taysom is go go gadget guy though, and I would enjoy seeing what Winston could do start to finish in a month or two of games.

The one thing I hope doesn’t come to pass is QB by committee again, lol. I’m just not a fan of that.

It's not likely to disappear. Payton uses the versatility of TH7 to create personnel groupings that makes it tough for the defense to decipher especially when both Winston and TH7 are on the field at the same time. So, I would expect that seeing either and/or both in a game at the QB position will be regular business in 2021.

I agree with this SFIAH. This does hinge on and bring up the important question of who is QB3. The Hill package was run knowing There was another QB behind the starter (Brees) that could step in during an emergency like Winston did in the second half of the Niners game. Hill wasn’t used again in the utility role until Brees came back. So, basically Hill has to accept the utility role and another guy to backup Winston is needed. Semien is there now, maybe an upgrade can be obtained in draft or a later signing.
