Period.

I don't think either are to be honest.

Even in limited time, Winston threw a pass straight to a 49er player that was dropped, the sort of pick he's known for.

Buckle up, the rest of the season may not be very fun.

Correct on both cases, I fear.

However the QB situation unfolds for us at least our big targets are healthy
and between Kamara and Murray we'll have to run the ball a little more.
The Defense has stepped up and we will need them to keep that going. If we get behind early we won't have Drew to work his magic for a while.

This really sucks. Dang.

I think Winston will look better when they have a plan dialed up for him. He had to come in and work with what he saw. I think we will see a pretty healthy mix of him and Hill. My Coworker wants Hill to be the starter. While I think he is fun to watch on those cute plays they try and run with him. I don't think he is a starter. He is a terrible passer and even more terrible at reading the field. He stares down his targets and goes through almost no progressions.

I just really hate this for Brees. Damn I'm depressed.

Hope your back up didn't miss a beat

Drew finished the half with that.

The male of our species is quite odd isn’t he?

If I severed my leg I could still mow the lawn with a push mower. Get a fu%king sore throat and you might as well drag me out back and shoot me lol.

I just saw the news on MondayNightFootball , halftime show.

First, Dear Lord. Best to healing Brees , quickly. This is a huge loss...for now.

Saints were here at midpoint in Nov. coming along nicely in the W column.
In the Ws, some good playing. Some improvements, close calls, but leading the pack in their division.

Winston or Hill?
Ehhhh, maybe put them both out there. Flip a coin.

I don’t know.

Here's hoping Jameis steps up if SP starts him like Teddy did last season.

Keeping Taysom in the WildCat and special plays may be the best alignment.
I'm sure we will be in for an interesting ride however this shakes out.

I wasn't as worried last year because I knew Teddy had some ability. I have zero faith in Jameis and can see us losing every game he starts.
