First of all, cut back on the caffeine. Second, I guess Kamara and CGM “deserve” a chance at QB too then for all they’ve done for this team, right? Because so far all Hill has shown is that he’s a great athlete who can run, hit, and catch and has a Propensity to fumble when he does so. As Clint Eastwood said in Unforgiven “deserving’s got nothing to do with it”.

And what does growing into the position mean? Hill is three years older than Winston. Hill gets a chance to grow into the NFL QB position, but Winston doesn’t? You don’t think Green Bay and Saints coaches (plus the entire drafting NFL world) might know a thing or two about evaluating his potential as a starting NFL QB? Since playing at BYU the dude has had every opportunity to win a starting QB job and, guess what?...HE IS GETTING ANOTHER ONE RIGHT NOW! Hill, Winston, Simeon, and Book are all getting the chance to win the starting job. I personally don’t care who it is that does win it but my money is on Winston. Doesn’t mean I’m pulling for him more than anyone else. But he’s clearly demonstrated he posses superior skills to be an NFL QB over the other three at this point.

Hey man, Hill is the underdog. Never played a down for a rival. Ever. He's come in and played multiple positions and has done well doing it. Even doing things that your boy Winston would scoff and probably refuse to do.

I've been pulling for the underdog for a 35 years (the Saints). Not gonna stop now. And there ain't a damn thing wrong with it.

Anyone pulling for Hill....I say hell yeah! And if he doesn't get the nod at QB, I hope he makes the whole team rethink their rank and file at their position. Because he makes them all look expendable.

Nothing wrong with cheering for a true athlete and a true sportsman.

Sounds good. I’m not pulling against Hill by any means. As I clearly stated I have no preference in who wins the starting QB race. I love Hills game as the gadget guy and think he is most effective in that roll. Just my opinion.

On another note, most of the NFL watching world and half the people on this site have written Winston off after his 30 Int season. The Saints are paying Hill more money, and Hill got the starts in place of Brees last year. I would argue that Winston is the underdog in this scenario. And if you are going to pull against a guy because he played for another team you are going to be rooting against a lot of guys. I think it would be great for the Saints to win the SB with Winston, kick Tampa’s ass, and cram it to Ariens by beating him with the QB that he let go!

Dude he let him go and got TB. Keeping Crabby Partty and not taking TB would've been absolutely absurd. Lol. 1 season and he delivered a SB.

Oh, I would have done the same thing. I’m just saying if Payton could take Winston and go on a 5-6 year successful run that would be a thumb in Ariens eye.
