Ian Book shined too?

I’m starting to think neither one of these guys are an answer long term. I was high on Winston but so far it seems like same old story hot and cold. If it turns out Winston isn’t the answer I’ll be fine with a gimmicky Hill led offense. Or even dual Qb offense for this year.

If neither one of them can win the job, give it to Book and see what he's got. Use Hill as a gadget guy and Winston in some packages to mix it up.

I hope preseason shows something.

QB looks like it will be a tight competition for second place.

I think Book will beat out Hill for QB2. Then again, that would partially be because of Hill's value as the Swiss Army knife.

Ian is going to hold the clip board & sport a backwards baseball cap all season long ... assuming he cracks the final roster.

Hill, no. Jameis, jury's out but I thought he played well despite leading the 2nd and 3rd string. He went through his progressions, didn't risk too much. Some of those throws were absolute ropes!

Fumble, not his fault. INT, underthrown (slightly) but arguably not his fault and had that been completed we're talking about him as the #1 QB.

If the Saints organization started Book over Winston and Hill you can guarantee there would be a mass exodus and an increase in trade requests. You’d lose that locker room instantly. The players want Winston as it is. Payton needs to choose leader sooner than later.

Hill
By far played the best of the two. JW was slow on release and held the ball as long as AB use too. It’s hills to lose at this point. Wouldn’t be surprised it JW is released or traded before the season
