Tebow a Saint?

Thank you neugey. I'm glad you agree. I think Pennington was always an underrated QB, and if his surgery goes well, which I think it did, I think he would be an amazing back up to Brees.

I like that idea. I thought he was playing well before his injury. He is accurate and I have a feeling he would fit well in Paytons system. He's a good leader and should be more than capable as a back up. I wonder how much money he wants?

I've always been a big Pennington fan... he's great within 0-15 yards where we do most of our damage. Extremely accurate and I think ragged on way to much for his lack of arm strength. I think he'd be a great backup here and should Brees every go down, he's more than capable winning football games for us.

Just think, we normally would have been talking about this crap in December.

Not sold on Tebow, but I do see some potential logic. I don't really think he is a Payton type of QB, but the guy is projected as a 4-5 year project, so that could possibly be about the time Brees is ready to hang it up. Drafting the guy in the 2nd round, not very smart for a team that still has issues to address on defense.

As for backup QB, I do believe time has run out on Brunell. The Saints should have some nice options available, a guy like Pennington would be exceptional. Also, don't rule out guys like Delhomme and Bulger who may get their walking papers this offseason. I do think it's wise to bring in a veteran, I don't think Daniel is ready yet.

I don't know about Delhomme.... I understand he's a homer, but he was kind of an a-hole, when he went to Carolina.

I just threw up a little bit

No to Tebow.

Our backup will never be as good as Brees or shouldn't or he'd be a starter somewhere. We just need someone that can manage a game and not play like a rookie. Lets see what Chase can do next pre-season and maybe draft a late rounder or sign an undrafted to being in for competition.

Tebow cries too much. He's not man enough to be on our roster.
