Did anyone from this forum call for Winston to play over Brees? I seriously don't recall that.

See the game threads Weeks 2-5. Yes, some folks question why Brees wasn't throwing to open receivers down the field...

I said it a few times. The dinking and dunking was so excessive, but it hasn’t been as bad over the last couple of weeks. I’m excited to see what he can do.

There definitely were earlier in the season. There were claims that Brees had lost it and it was time to move on to Winston.

Because they were not the primary options, most likely. But, haters gonna hate.

It's the ball control that has made the offense effective thus far. Shots down the field can kill a drive quickly. Those dinks and dunks are as effective as a good running game at moving the ball AND moving the clock. I am hoping we see the same from Winston.

Colston used to sleep in a hyperbaric chamber. I'm pretty sure Brees would have access to one if he didn't own one already. There are also bone growth stimulators that are used to quicken healing of fractures readily available.

Wish all you want but "It is what it is". Try accepting what you have no control over.

I accept Winston coming in and unfortunately can't control how well he plays. ;)

He did not look good in that second half Sunday, hopefully that isn't a prelude to the upcoming week.
