Sometimes ladies and gents it only takes one drop to be a big deal!

In a real, meaningful game having to settle for FG's instead of TD's is a big deal Guido. No excuse for that drop & I'm sure coach Payton had a problem with that.

TG Jr is who he is though.

My question is why is Ginn even in that package? From the 10? What benefit is burner speed when the farthest you can go is 20 yd?

And Ginn has a history of drops. Hoped coaching would help but he's an old dog.

There were improvements but at the end of the day it was a carbon copy of last4 years. Blow 3rd and impossible and screw the pooch 2 min offense.

Get use to Ted running wild open and hit in the bread basket with a perfect pass only to drop it.

He has a long history of butter fingers when running free and at the worse time.

I can remember the panthers vs saints in the dome, not once, not twice but at the very least 3 times he dropped long passes. He was wide open. Plays that would have put up 7 or put the kitties in range to put up points.

When he did it we cheered. This year we will be throwing bricks at the TV.

I'd much rather get used to showing him the door and keeping tommy

I remember last year when we signed Fleener and everyone said it was a terrible contract and we'd be disappointed. Man we fought back and tried to dig up any little stat we could to show he didn't drop passes like people said. Then the season starts and there's a big wuss out there at TE not making catches in the crucial moments.

Get used to it with Ginn folks... This is who he is and it won't magically be solved just because he's in black and gold now.

That's a good example because I was one of the dummies trying to be like I don't think he drops lots of passes....I feel like a fool

Now we have Fleener and Ginn with stone hands and both are starters with Brees throwing to them, not to mention the D we have. Payton might have finally lost his mind. Hope this works out if not it's going to get ugly.
