It's just a difference of opinion.

Here's why I like Hill.

I love what he's done for the team and I enjoy watching him play. I love his enthusiasm and work ethic on the field. He gets fired up and trucks people. He can run and he can throw. Actually, he can and WILL do just about anything asked of him. It's fun!

Although I'm from Red Stick, I've lived in Idaho most of my life. And he went to high school close to where I live now.

I'm sure you have all your reasons for wanting Winston. Its not a big deal man.

Your reasons for liking Winston aren't going to change my mind about him. I've never like his style of leading and I think he tends to have an unusual way of embarrassing himself. I used to love watching Cam sack him. It made me laugh! But big deal! Who cares?!

If Winston starts and does something special, then you can say I told you so!

Sheesh man, not everyone is going to buy that he has some sort of untapped potential that SP is gonna get out of him. But that's okay too.

At the end of the day, your opinion is yours. And mine is mine.

I like Hill for the very same reasons and that is why I DON"T want him playing QB. If the Saints have success this season I doubt it will be because of the QB. It will likely be in spite of the QB. I don't expect either to do anymore than be capable. But, Hill can be MUCH more than that in several other areas of the game.

Once again, I am a huge fan of Hill's and that is why I don't want him being wasted at QB.

JN, this is a good post and I agree with most of it. My only point, and it’s one
that I don’t think some have accepted from me yet is that I don’t WANT Winston to win out over Hill. I don’t believe I have ever said that. I THINK he has shown so far to be the better QB and have more potential for growth than Hill. I THINK he can be a better QB for this team than Hill. I may be wrong of
course.

Winston historically has certainly had more negatives against him in his personality and actions than Hill. I can certainly understand why some want him to fail and are pulling for Hill over him. It’s not hard to understand why.

What I don’t understand is people writing him off and saying they “know who Winston is” and such type things. Acting like he has no chance. The numbers and video show differently. I posted a video of him with numerous plays that require immense skill and talent to perform. Skills that can only be done by someone who possess all the tools necessary to be a successful NFL QB, and the reaction from some is, “Sure, that’s a highlight reel”. Does that mean he didn’t pull off those plays? Does it mean he can’t make more of
those great plays and cut down on the bad ones under Payton’s coaching? I just don’t see why some aren’t willing to give him the same chance as Hill to win the job in Training camp. I’ve seen too many “We know what he is” type comments for me to wrap my head around. Especially for a QB that beat the Saints twice while he was with Tampa.

One last thing is about Winston’s actions and attitudes since he’s been a
Saint. I’ve heard nothing but positives about and from him since he’s been here. His talking about being a family man and getting married was an eye opener about his character for me. I know getting married and becoming a father straightened my ass out quite a bit. He never made a single complaint about Hill starting over him in Brees’s absence last year. He has maturely and gracefully accepted the backup role so he could get a “Harvard education” in QBing was the way he put it I believe. He also get LASIKS done to help his vision (another thing that made a big difference in my life). I just don’t understand the desire to write him off so readily when the option is the VERY unproven Hill.
