Taysom or Jameis?

The bigger question is the second opinion on Drew and whether or not he goes on IR, which could affect the decision on how many QB's the Saints will have active (2 or 3), which will in turn have a major impact on Taysom's role. I don't blame Sean for not answering yet.

This is a good point. I can’t remember how we used Hill last year when Teddy took over. No matter the situation now, we can’t have Hill playing his normal role.

Well according to NFL.com they are saying Drew could be ok in 2 weeks!!!

I find that hard to believe with the injuries he is carrying at the moment!

Could that really be the case?

Tony Romo suffered broken ribs and a collapsed lung in OT back in 2011 and played in the very next game EIGHT days later.

There are differing degrees of rib fractures and lung collapses. A severe collapse would require hospitalization. A minor/partial collapse can heal completely in less than two weeks. The same with the ribs. Brees came into this past game with three broken ribs.
