Makes you wonder where he hides his crystal ball :shock:

Re: Jimmy Garoppolo Saint?
 

Out of the top ten QB's last season Drew is ranked 9th in interceptions. Only person behind him is Jamie Winston, a rookie. For a HOF QB that is a fairly disturbing fact. If that happens again I want a new QB. Not going to win a lot of games if that number is mid to plus teens.

This type of question is something I question this board on? It's better to ask questions on this than be negative or point out serious facts?

Re: Jimmy Garoppolo Saint?
 

Every other year his ints go down from the previous season. That year is due. Still he throws more ints than the other top QBs and the excuse so far is he doesn't have short fields.

Re: Jimmy Garoppolo Saint?
 

He also threw for 5200 yards. I mean the law of averages is gonna get you. If he's throwing the ball as much as he did, he's gonna have more pics. I agree there were a couple stupid ones, but how many bounced off WRs hands? Idk. His pics don't bother me as much as the defenses lack of ability to create turnovers and force punts.

Have you ever heard of pass to interception ratio? Brees had 15 interceptions in 673 attempts for an pass/interception ratio of 48.5:1! That is actually pretty awesome. Factor in that he was forced to pass into tiny windows frequently because of the defensive failures and opposing defenses expecting the pass and it is even more amazing.

His number of interceptions would only be disturbing if you didn't understand the metrics involved.

I wanna see how he does with a serious threat of a run game, or with a serious dump off option in Kamara...

Re: Jimmy Garoppolo Saint?
 

I understand that if you have a lot of turnovers you won't be going to the playoffs. If that number does not come down we are spinning wheels here. I'm not bashing him either just saying that some of the throws are not needed.

Re: Jimmy Garoppolo Saint?
 

Sky's the limit. I have lived and closely followed through all 51 years of Saints QB's, and pardon me Archie, but none have held a candle to what Brees can do today. If anyone thinks that we can easily replace even a lessor version of him anytime soon, they are a fool.
