[Merged] Payton says Jameis has a chance to be Saints next starter (long term, not talking about the game this week)
This is a good podcast. Still only a quarter of the way through, but so far discovered that Sean is responsible for bringing in the smoke and light machines 😆.
He also reminds the players that the invention of rap is from HIS generation. Said they weren't even born when some of the greats were doing it.
He said Taysom has the job now because he told him that if he came back, he would be the #2. The narrative that they aren't high on Jameis couldn't be further from the truth.
Both will have the opportunity to be the starter "the minute Drew leaves."
Made the players listen to Nat and Natalie King Cole duet.
His dad used to make him listen to Nat, Johnny Mathis and Frank Sinatra. Then he'd have to listen to his dad explain his rankings for each.
Thinks Teddy, Taysom and Jameis have leadership skills that transcends teams.
Wants Taysom to process quicker and get the ball out. Said other mobile QBs know when to run. Thought his 3rd down plays last week were great. Sees improvement in his pocket passing.
Jameis has performed exceptionally well considering the amount of time he's been with the team.
He blames himself for not crafting the 1st half of the Seattle game in a way that would help Teddy. Compared it to throwing him out there and giving him an obscure karaoke song to sing instead of something he already knows. "Coaches tend to complicate things."
Gonna keep listening.
