P Manning won his last SB playing a hell of a lot worse than Bridgewater is right now.

When I see him on TV and they present Dilfer as a "SB Champion" I roll my eyes. Yes, he is a SB champ but Danny Heisman Wuerffel could have won a SB with that defense. They both need their own special area in the HOF.

Ain’t gonna be a lot of winning having to hold NFL teams to single digits every week.

Doesn’t take a genius to connect the dots. Give Taysom a shot, if he’s worse than Teddy, then we’re screwed regardless after Brees leaves.

You're making a mistake if you think any of this is about a post Brees era. Right now a SB win is within reach. It's not the time to experiment.

TB is 4-0 starting. Brees will be back. All the Saints need to do right now is what they are doing...

The mistake is assuming all variables will remain constant. Kamara’s already not 100%, care to guess what happens if he actually misses games as well?

Or if we are down 2 scores and have to play from behind with 5 minutes left on the clock. Situations like that is when you want your experienced Hall of Fame Qb in the game. We are doing just fine with Teddy now but sooner or later we are going to have to be able to win a shootout. I’ll take games like today every week all season long as long as we get a win but I also want to know if it comes down to pulling us out of a big hole we have a QB who can. We know we have that with Brees. Teddy not so much.
I’m thrilled we have a backup that can keep us in games though.

Im just happy we are at 5-1. I would've guessed maybe 2-3 right now and hoping for a wild card when Brees returns. Im over excited with these results.

Put me in the camp that doesn't give two chits about style points or how we arrive at winning games. However you can get it, a win is a win. They are extremely hard to come by at this level.

I'll let others debate on Teddy.

There are a lot of teams who don’t have one QB they can with and we have two. They would be in utter disbelief if they saw how unhappy some of this fan base is right now.
