Twelve weeks into the season, we have a much more drab (and convoluted) QB rivalry to talk about: Trevor Siemian vs. Taysom Hill vs. Ian Book.

If you could even call it a rivalry.

Siemian handled all quarterback snaps in the Saints’ home field walloping at the hands of Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. Suffice to say, he did not play well, throwing for one score and 163 passing yards while recording an interception.

After the game, Sean Payton addressed questions about who the backup quarterback was since Hill was still injured.

Sean Payton was a practice squad third string type QB. He loves them all. He has a long history of taking middle to late round QBs to develop. None ever amounted to anything. Book seems like a longshot.

It's what I've been saying, for every successful mid to late QB pick (ie. Dak Prescott) there are 100 that might have a chance at getting a backup gig at the very most. Most don't even make it off the practice squad or even make a team at all.

How strongly can he feel when he continues to start Trevor? Trevor takes anywhere between a five and 47 step drop which destroys our office of line. He is not Michael Vick and does not have the ability to scramble and has the speed of a sloth.

He never said what it was about Book that they feel "strongly" about. It could be that they feel "strongly" that he is no where near ready to take an NFL snap that counts.

True but Dak was supposed to be a late 1st/early 2nd before his DWI.

Book is a developmental QB. Throwing him in the fire too early could be disastrous for both him and the team.

We don't him looking like this.
