Saints Execs love Spencer Rattler per ESPN’s Matt Miller

I'm not sold on Rattler. He's akin to a Winston like career, where he's a really good backup but one of the worse starting QB's. He has some great qualities such as keeping eyes down field, competitive attitude etc... but something doesn't feel good about it. I can't put my finger on it. He'll make a beautiful play and throw one play then the next looks like Dan Orlovsky. Could that change with a good coach? Absolutely. Will it? Dunno. I don't have a crystal ball, but it would be silly to hand him the keys to the franchise for the next 5 years currently.

I think its something that experienced QBs have to learn over time. Once Rattler made that brilliant throw, he immediately felt comfortable and over-confident then threw a pick. Its a trap to feel that way, thats why they have to stay dialed in and disciplined. Then over time, the disciplined play becomes comfortable. That is why Carr looks so much better than Rattler. And its also why amateur fans think Rattler should be QB1. They see the good throw and assume that he'll make that good throw over and over because he's done it once. When in fact, he needs a ton of experience before he makes the right decisions always. Just like Winston. Winston publicly admitting that his throw out of bounds, was one of his best throws attests to this, because that throw, showed growth in his game where he needed it.
