Because he is not an NFL QB. He's not the future there. I'm sorry. He wasn't a good passer in college, either. An elite athlete is always what he's been. And by the time Drew retires, he'll be, what, 32? I don't understand the Taysom as heir apparent talk.

Nope. He'll be 35.

SIRIUSLY!!! Why would the SAINTS WANT A 35 year old QB!!??

Who do they think he is?
LUKE McCOWN!!!

GAMES 62 STARTED 10 PASS COMP 216 PASS ATT 356 COMPLETION % 60.7 YDS PASSING 2,370 AVG PP 6.7 TD'S 9 INT 15 QB RATING 71.3 RUSH ATT 34 TOTAL YDS 177 AVG 5.2 TTD 0

Considering Taysom Hill has not started or played a complete game at the QB position. The few passes he completed went for an average of 9.2 yards. Nearly 3 yards more than Luke's career and nearly 2 yards more than Drew Brees and Matty Ice's Career.

The preseason game against the Chargers he went
11-15, 136 YDS, 2 TD for a 73% completion average & 12.3 yds PP

Sure it was a preseason game but using his passing stats based on "gimmick" plays to determine he is or isn't NFL starting capable is ludicrous.
