During time Brees is away, roll with Bridgewater...

If it's evident he'll be no more than a conservative, Brad-Johnson, check-down, ball-control passer who, one, won't throw it downfield, and two, won't run for the first down - then he limits the offense...

So, if his play has had no positive-WAR, why not take this Drew-less time to evaluate Taysom to see if the PreSeason was a fluke, or if he's the real deal...

If players genuinely rally to him, a must to win in the NFL, then you have to discover that now - otherwise you miss opportunities to take a replacement for the position in the next couple of drafts...

This ++ because to me, it doesn’t even look like Teddy believes, which is a shame. Teddy is trying to be perfect, which paralyzes him.

Hill basically seems to do whatever it takes and asks forgiveness later.

I would gladly be wrong about it, but this is what I see
