I think that Rattler will start while Shough watches and learns. Hopefully Rattler will be great but I think that by midseason this new Saints organization will feel the need to move onto their pick from this years draft in Shough.

I recall you mentioning Rattler wouldn't get a fair shot. Do you still feel that way? I thought it was telling how Spencer started with the 1s in 2/3 games.

IMO he looks about the same as he did last season and my main issue is accuracy.

Shough has the same problem. His ceiling may be higher but he's making just as many mistakes as Spencer.

I can justify either guy starting so in a way I'm left agreeing with Guido - whoever starts is fine with me.
I think Moore did little things that showed he wanted Shough to step up, show out, and be the guy but not to the point that it compromised Rattler's chances. Rattler led to scoring drives with the 1's but I personally feel like he should have came away with 1 TD to truly solidify himself. If he hits Shaheed on that slant maybe the conversation is different. I think Shough is a better fit for the style of offense that Kellen Moore wants to run. Spencer Rattler is more of an Air Raid QB. 4 verticals. But in short, Rattler was given a good enough chance to make a more noticeable impact.

Re: QB Poll

I too think Shough fits Coach Moore’s offense better, more mobile at 6’4”, looking at the film on the whole he was more accurate. He seems process he reads well and is locked loaded to throw the chunk plays if it presents itself. Timing and accuracy have not been there yet but he has the arm vision and seems to be unafraid.

Whoever Coach Moore picks … Who Dats unite.
