Seems like every other team expected to sign Bridgewater (Speculation)

I don't think the argument here is that people likes Taysom over Teddy. I think both players can be our starting quarterbacks for years to come.

Teddy is more of a safe thing. If Sean Payton wants continuity, it is obvious that Teddy is the way to go.

If Sean Payton wants some excitement, by changing the game plan and ways to attack, then Taysom is his guy.

But not even plan styles is the criteria of one over the other.

With a 21 million cap hit on the wait, and based on the current salaries of quarterbacks, a new contract for Drew Brees won't come cheap.

Teddy is an unrestricted free agent. The best paid backup in football, and a guy that proved he belonged as a starting quarterback. I am sure that he can double his salary if he goes to another team. He will have choices, not only about salary but team.

Tysom is restricted, he may leave for a first or second draft pick, but I think we have a better chance to structure a multi-year deal with him, keeping also Drew with us for the next couple of years.

It is not that we don't like Teddy, it is just that we don't think we can afford him.

This is pretty much exactly what I was going to say. I feel like people are getting mad at others for liking Coke better than Grape Soda... who cares what people like. It's no reason to get mad. In the end, someone is going to be our QB next year and we are going to root like hell for that person. I feel like, even if Drew leaves, it's tight that we can afford Teddy. If Drew stays, there is no way we can afford Teddy, sorry. Taysom, we know we can afford and we hope we can succeed. I am so thankful we splurged on Teddy as an expensive backup, it was one of the best offseason moves we made last summer. But I feel as if, barring some unforeseen circumstances or every other team balking for some reason on a decent contract, that Teddy is gone. Someone who won't even consider our opinions is going to choose a starting QB next year... so why are we getting mad at each other?
