Ted Ginn never had the luxury of playing with a good quarterback like his counterpart Santonio Holmes. We see who’s still in the league and who’s not. Ginn has always been a tremendous athlete, but the best QB he played with before now was Cam Newton, who we all know isn’t the poster child for accuracy. Yeah, Ted will drop an occasional pass, but if you use him right he’s the most dangerous weapon on the field. I saw a modified screen the Steelers ran for Antonio Brown last night that the Saints should adopt for Ginn.

They probably have an offensive assistant looking at it this moment.

Although Drew is a HOF, most of the passes he threw to Ted Ginn I wouldn't advise, but it worked out. On the real, Ginn made Drew look good not the other way around. I expect Drew to get his timing with Ginn and that will come with time and more trust.

He made a great catch that we really needed. Ginn got juice

Even better when you consider Ginn's YAC, way better than Cooks...

I didn't like the signing. I thought Payton was sending a message to Cooks letting him know that he was just a burner and we could get one of those anywhere.
I figured Ginn would be a deep field decoy that other teams would have to respect but I didn't expect him to be as involved in any other aspects of the offense.

I was wrong. Turns out he's an asset all over the field. He's more elusive after the catch than Cooks, and unlike Brandon, he's not afraid to go across the middle.

He has his moments. We were lucky in Green Bay with that mishandled punt and he got away with a push off against the Bears (great veteran move based on ref position). Not sure if Drew has hit him stride yet, he is definitely is fast.
