Especially when I post a comment saying no comment, then I go on to make a comment. 😆

I'm a fan of redemption stories and I want nothing more than for Jameis to fulfill his potential and all the justification he'll feel along with winning.

Not to mention our justification we will feel in his winning.

Who Dat!

We haven't been through this QB situation since Brees came to town.
So for us it's back to the Good Ole Days..

In Jim Mora cadence.Potential?! Potential?! He will BE who HE IS.

You don’t talk about potential when a guy has been in the league for over half a decade.

There was a guy that had been in the league for half a decade and was not retained by his original team. It was not until he got the opportunity to start for the Saints in Sean Payton's offense that he realized his potential. His name was Drew Brees.

He had never thrown for over 5000 yards before coming to the Saints. Heck, he'd never passed for 4000 yards. He only managed to complete 65% of his passes once in that half a decade (65.5%). He had never topped 27 TD's in a season and more than 17 TD's only twice.

Speaking of potential, in Drew Brees' first half a decade he produced 80 TD's. This is the same guy that later met his potential and became the NFL's all-time leader in TD passes. After Jameis Winston's first half a decade he struggled to ONLY 121 TD's, over 50% more than that Drew Brees guy managed in his first half a decade.

In Brees' first half a decade he passed for 12,348 yards. This is the same guy that later met his potential and became the NFL's all-time leader in yards passing. After Jameis Winston's first half a decade he struggled to ONLY 19,737 yards, once again well over 50% more than that Drew Brees guy managed in his first half a decade.

It is fun to speculate. I certainly do wish the best for the Saints, since I am a die-hard. If Winston is QB I could care less, I just want wins.

I do have an opinion and fortunately if his lack of good decision making continues to haunt him, we are rather screwed unless Hill or Book can step up.

My gut feeling says this will be a one year experiment.

Being from Florida all of my Bucs friends are truly enjoying their SB win and the cherry on top of their sundae is to see the Saints stuck with Jameis. Many haha's at my expense.

While Brees had a less than stellar last year, his main target Thomas was not up to par either, which did impact that. My hope is Thomas returns solid and others step up. If the receiving corps can create space quickly downfield or in the secondary it will eliminate Winston from being pressed to make the wrong decision.

Don't want em to get your goat don't show em where it's hid.

Or make us all disgusted.
