Re: The steal at QB in the next NFL Draft

I'll give Winston a pass for coming in cold yesterday. He actually started decent and then he was missing throws and reads. People give Brees crap about the dump offs but yesterday Winston missed 2 of these which would have served in 2 ways. One avoid the sack and two keep the clock running.
Maybe practicing this week with first team will help him but listening to Hebert last night he said Winston misses open receivers in practice.

Florida QB Trask is looking pretty good right now.

Re: The steal at QB in the next NFL Draft

I am going to say tap the brakes on Jameis and lets see what happens. I noticed Jameis almost threw a bad decision interception and on a play where he ran it could have been easily knocked out of his hands. What I am saying is there is no dispute over his talent, the decision making may not have improved.

Re: The steal at QB in the next NFL Draft

If Winston is the man, then pay the man.

"I try to give everybody my all. I try to be right there with Drew along the way, watching film with him, preparing with him. So I felt like I went out there and I was prepared to lead this team. And I'm happy that my teammates had my back and they went out there and executed well and things went our way." - Jameis Winston

"He led us to an important scoring drive, led us to another field goal drive. The one thing I would say with Jameis, too, is he's extremely bright. So functioning and understanding what we're doing, he picks it up quickly." - Sean Payton

So many people say Winston isn't smart. I call BS. I'm the last guy in the room who wants to see Drew retire. I'm the first guy in the room who wants to see Taysom get a shot. If Sean says Jameis is the man then he's the man. Sean knows QBs.

+1.

Ultimately, that's all that matters.

What Sean feels and what he says are not necessarily the same in this case. Even if he thinks we are in deep sh!t with Winston "under center" he has to portray total confidence in what the dog dragged in.

Regardless, Jameis will be your starter on Sunday AG. It's time to accept that. The next Pat Mahomes isn't on the roster right now.

Brees is seriously banged up right now & needs time to heal. If we get him back at the start of the playoffs ... GREAT. If we don't, we have to roll with what we have.

No ****. Although I expect he'll be back well before the start of the playoffs. I just hope that Winston and company don't put us in too much of a hole for Brees to bring us through.

One more thing. I think this guarantees Brees returns for another season. I cannot imagine him quitting on a partial season. No way. That's not in his DNA.

I have to totally agree, never want drew Brees on the bench but it is what it is. Next man up

This has nothing to do with Drew retiring and has nothing to do with Taysom starting. It has to do with how Winston's effectiveness will be. I truly hope the best for our team. Winston has a chance, it started yesterday.
