Drew thinks Jameis will come back stronger than ever
Where is the Jameis hater? And who’s dissing what Drew said? Lol.
There are posters here who simply refuse by any means to give Winston ANY credit. They are quick to point to his 30 interception season and just as quick to overlook his 5K passing yard season. They will go so far as to claim that Tampa's defense was top 10 while he was there which is absolutely false. These people have no rational reason to not like Winston other than the fact that he is Jameis Winston. Those are the haters and it's not hard to spot them.
Winston has faults and he has things that he needs to improve on but at the end of the day, outside of landing Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers or Watson, which we didn't, there was no other QB's available or who even made sense to bring in unless the goal for the season was to tank for a better draft pick.
Brees has been and will always be a beloved and respected QB of the New Orleans Saints. When Brees said something, people listened and took him at his word on it. His opinion on a player or players was taken as truth for all intents and purposes. It isn't until now that he has a positive outtake on Winston that his take is seen as "fluff" or it's dismissed as Brees not willing to be critical of fellow players. Here's a newsflash. Brees is no longer playing. Brees is a commentator who is paid to commentate and give his opinion. As I stated previously, everything about Brees tells me that his goal is for his opinion to be taken seriously. That won't happen with "fluff".
There are a lot of folks on this site that were wrong about TH7 and it's been a bitter pill for them to swallow. But the fact remains that they were wrong and Allen pretty much put a big-arse exclamation point on them being wrong about TH7 being an NFL QB. That crowd is still holding onto that bitterness and it reveals itself when anyone has something positive to say about Winston. Hell, there's people seriously talking about spending 4 1st round picks and a 2nd on a QB in THIS draft, one of the weakest for QB in years.
It's irrational the disdain that some here have for a guy who won the Heisman, won NFL rookie of the year and is one of only 4 QB's to throw for 5K in a season. But 30 interceptions.....while conveniently ignoring the rest. That's hate and it's stupid.
