So most of them are jumping off the Winston bandwagon. Payton not giving him a chance to throw too many times is because he knows what that would mean. It is so boring to hear the "anyone who followed Brees would have a lot of criticism" etc. HONEST eyeball evaluation. "He is who he was". In the words of the great american philosopher Forest Gump, "You can't fix stupid." QB play REQUIRES cerebral play. We're not seeing it.
Sorry Thirty, I disagree. It’s not same old Tampa Winston. He’s being very cerebral in that he’s smart enough to not be throwing passes he shouldn’t for the most part. He’s thrown passes away and took sacks rather than toss it up. He’s on a 39 TD 11 INT pace. That’s hardly same old Tampa Jameis. And he’s not had a Godwin/Evans type WR combo to throw to. It’s only been three games (with a displaced team who has had COVID issues) but I see more maturity on his part. Time will tell.

You think you know, but you don’t know...and you never will! Coach Jim Mora
