Kinda reminds of of something my Pop said yesterday, “I’m disappointed that Payton wasn’t more prepared at the QB position”. The expectation that he had about how the Saints should have 4 good QBs on the team was mind boggling to me. You are doing a bit of that yourself IMO.

I think we made the wrong call at QB. As a 'running' team, which is clearly what Coach had in mind, Hill would be the better choice.

Personally, I think Coach was bout the take the cuffs off Jameis and open things up a little bit, and I think the delay was largely due to the fact that through our first 7 games nobody stepped up at the WR position in any meaningful way - we were just plain bad as a passing offense regardless of who was under center. As we know, our overrated line got Jameis killed, and the rest is history.

Hard to 'blame' anyone really. Life after Drew was not going to be easy, but to misjudge our WR room so grossly is where I'm scratching my head. The only thing I can conclude is that coach new we were deficient there but had no choice but to try and sell it.

Best coaching I've ever seen really. Next season will be another exciting one. One thing is for sure: We need playmakers on offense, and if we don't get one we are going to get Kamara killed.
