And each and every game he looks and plays more and more like a real QB. His accuracy gets better, he stays in the pocket more and he’s even starting to protect himself.

I agree but you can’t ignore that fact that he takes some hits...big ones at that. He will also be 29 next season so if it’s going to happen then it better happen next year. We will still need a great backup as I doubt he could make it 16 games with the way he plays.

He also missed a TD to Jaquizz on that last drive

So reminds you of Tebow?

Hill got an arm and ability as a passer that is leaps and bounds above what Tebow had.
What they do have in common is that they both seem to be the type of person that you gravitate to, that teammates just love. That is a powerful thing for a QB.

That intangible is leadership, something that can not be taught. They have a few more commonalities ( BYU QB Taysom Hill has drawn comparison to Tim Tebow - NFL.com)

As stated by someone else he needs work on accuracy and consistency and I can think of no one better to work with him than Drew. Drew always talks like after football he is going to stay in the Big Easy, that would bode very well for Hill and the Saints if they can get Hill to that replacement level of play. I am sure the days are very few and far between where Drew's hands haven't touched a football in the last 22 years and I suspect that habit will not die easy. I predict if all plays out like the above Drew will continue to mentor Hill after he is retired. Hill is also the type of guy Sean Payton might stay around a few more years for as well.

Hill tries to mimmick a lot of what Brees does. Teddy is on record saying he does not do that. He does it his way.

Bothered me when Teddy said that because he is playing under one of the greatest QB's of all time. He should be trying his hardest to do it the Brees way because his way got him cut and on another team. He also looked like crap this PS for the most part.

He didn't look like crap, Teddy is his own man and his own player why should he strive to be a Drew Brees clone?

Taysom gets praised playing against 3rd 4th stringers Teddy gets ridiculed. Teddy is a better QB RIGHT NOW than Taysom. Don't want to use the pre season to judge the team, but damn sure will use it to judge a player.
