Trevor Siemian to Bears (1 Viewer)

So Book is now the #2?

According to webster on here, Book is the #1 and Jameis is his veteran backup. I'd love to know exactly what he's on and how much it costs him.

Or Bortles.

The W-L record is held over his head and is not indicative of his play. The "you are what your record says you are" horse manure.

Siemian was very unfairly judged by this fanbase. I'm not surprised he got this deal. Good for him. And I hope we get a comp pick out of it.

Good luck in Chi-town.

Maybe not, but Drew knows how to step up in the pocket.

Hard to step up when your line is decimated.

RIP Trevor S*m*n jokes

Our fans were harder on Siemian than he deserved. He played with the worst roster of the season and still managed 8 TDs and 924 passing yards in his 4 starts. Plus he was rock solid coming off the bench for two different starters and winning both of those games. He's everything you want in a backup QB. Hopefully Chicago will show him more respect.

Coming off the bench, he was fantastic. He's a good backup and I worry about our situation now. Bortles and Book?

Every game Trevor started Kamara was out with an injury

Because of Michael Thomas being out for the season, the biggest difference in the Saints win/loss record was if Alvin was playing or not.

With Alvin: 9-4
Without Alvin: 0-4

The 4th game without Alvin Taysom started and lost.

I'm not saying Simian is a good QB, but his starts in New Orleans put him in the absolute worst situation possible ... an offense with multiple injured offensive linemen and back-of-roster skill position players.

That doesn't change the fact that Siemian was an ineffective starting QB for the Saints. The perfect comparison is the final game--same offensive players except for QB in each half. Look who did better. And yet Taysom is no Jameis.

The guy we had to bring back was Jameis. Glad Siemian will still be employed, and even gladder it won't be with the Saints.

Trevor was a good QB considering what was given to him to work with.

 

[VPCajun]

Thank God.

I guess Bortles has been rocking it...

 

[Belfast Saint]

I think he's a solid back up guy. Not someone who's going to turn into a franchise QB though. But solid back up guy has value. Good luck to him.

And I think our receivers had like 8-9 drops in the ATL game. Must have been some sort of record.

Prime examples of people hating on Siemian. The receivers were the problem. They dropped almost everything he threw to them yet so many were too blind to see it. I wish him the best. Maybe he will get a chance to show how good of a backup he really is.
