Personally I think Taysom is our next QB. Something about the guy, outside the stuff you can measure. I think Teddy is gone next year and I'm okay with that.

I have no issues with TB. But I like Taysom. The guy is electric.

I don’t think anyone said he was Drew’s replacement or at least I didn’t. When we resigned him Hill didn’t look as good as has so far in preseason and didn’t look like a Qb who could take us all the way if Drew went down. TB had starting experience and was better than anyone else out there to take the 2 spot. Hill has stepped up and taken that number 2 spot as far as I’m concerned but TB on the team this year puts us in an excellent position to still win a SB if something were to happen to Brees, even if both QBs have to play a role.
I don’t think anyone but the coaches know how he would be as a starter and we won’t until we get him behind a real offensive line.
Hopefully we don’t find out this year.
We are in great shape with our backup QBs so I don’t know why everyone is *****ing.

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.

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 also missed a TD to Jaquizz on that last drive

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.

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?
