Saints vs. Ravens Preseason Week 1 Game Day Thread

QB controversy should be over. Payton needs to hitch his horse to Winston and let a one game plan approach begin. Taysom is much more valuable lined up with Winston than instead of him.

I know it isn’t the college way but I’m still of the mind that you either have one QB or none.

Each had an INT. I would say it's still inconclusive. Need another game or two to separate themselves.

I don't think Winston had the opportunity to throw with Callaway last night. Did well with less. If Southlake (Humphrey) could catch, that isn't a pick. I've never been a fan of his. At his height, he should use that body to his advantage ... same issues Brandon Coleman had.

We need another WR to help out Callaway until Mike gets back. No idea what's the injury status of 3quan Smith.

I don't think Winston was in error on the INT. That ball was placed well and bounced off the hands, then chest of Lil Jorden. Should have been a 30yd catch, but ended up as a drop and pick.

Hill's INT was miscommunication and/or bad rout running, however Hill threw another would be INT which was a bad throw but dropped by the defender.

Winston, once he settled in was easily moving the ball down the field. Hoping he gets the start next week and shows up.

Other than the QBs, thought the team played well. Defense was great, O line was good in the first half.

Biggest loser of the night: Devonte Freeman (needs to be cut ASAP)
Biggest winner of the night: Baun (great coverage and sideline to sideline moves)

Agreed. Winston looks much better than Hill.

How about Tony Jones? I didn’t get to watch the game, but his numbers were Ok. Did he look Ok?

Until he fumbled late; then again, all the active RBs had a fumble and all the QBs had an INT...

	The Saints are 0-42 when running the ball less than 15 times in a game.
