Ball security is still a problem and his accuracy/indecisiveness issues are very real.

I'm curious, why do you think we can stop his INTs, and you do realize in addition to his 30 INTs last year (in his 5th year as a starter!) he also had more than 10 fumbles. I love our D, but empty yardage on top of 40+ turnovers isn't gonna get us another Lombardi (IMO)

Exactly, Winston is who he is.

When he came in vs 49ers, he threw a gimme interception that the DB dropped.

I don't think his interceptions would magically stop here.

Perhaps but will hill go through his progressions and read the field better? He missed some wide open guys out there that were safe throws not triple coverage throws and instead threw into double or triple coverage

I’m not beating the drum to make Winston a starter by any means, but I’d like to point out few things. A lot is made of his 30 int (and 33 TD) performance last year and rightfully so perhaps. However, in 2005, Brett Favre threw 29 ints with only 20 TDs. He also had seasons of 19-24 and 22-23 ratios. Winston has not had a season yet with more Int than TDs. PFR also credits Favre with 10 fumbles in 2005.

Now, obviously I’m not saying that Winston can be Favre, but to discard a 33 TD season with 5,000 yards because he threw Ints in a Bruce A. system is a little rush to judgement
