No doubt, so Jameis goes, so goes the team.That's the thing people got to understand. All these acquisitions and draft picks are qreat and exciting and all but people forget about Winston and how it is important overall that he need to play well first.
A lot of people on this forum were hyping Winston’s potential and pushing back against those, like me, who had doubts about his being “the future.” Well, the Winston fans got their wish. He’s our man. Maybe what the OP is trying to say is, I hope the Winston fans were right.
It was one thing when it looked like the Saints would be in full rebuilding mode for the next few years. There would be time to see if JW would be what we need. But now, with all this new talent, the time is now. It’s on! I love it. I hope DA turns him loose and lets Winston take chances and learn from them and build confidence.
I believe our total draft investment in QBs since Payton has been here has been two 3rd rounders two 7th rounders. Plus, we've signed a handful of projects and FAs trying to revive their careers. I think people are downplaying Payton's ability to coach QBs, but much of it is probably to do with Taysom not working out, which I can sort of get. Taysom was really been the only one that Payton seemed adamant about, but even then, he started Winston after it was clear that Taysom wasn't the answer.He missed on a couple of draft choices but he reinvigorated Teddy. He never had to draft a qb high with Brees. It will be interesting to see how he does with another team. Did Sean make Brees or vice versa?
Dalton has already seen his best days and is accepting of a backup role at this stage of his career and Jameis played well enough last year, especially considering he had no one to throw the ball to, to deserve the opportunity to receive all the starter's reps in training camp this year and the be the guy heading into this season.The one thing I don’t like is DA anointing Winston the starter without competition. It reminds me of the Haslett/Brooks days. Haslett was scared to bruise Brooks ego and even cut Delhomme when he felt threatened. Guys need to win their role.
But Winston already won it last year. He just got injured and we re-signed him to be our starter.The one thing I don’t like is DA anointing Winston the starter without competition. It reminds me of the Haslett/Brooks days. Haslett was scared to bruise Brooks ego and even cut Delhomme when he felt threatened. Guys need to win their role.
Yeah, but you also said that Winston was going to be Ian Book's backup and this is month five of me waiting for your exhaustive list of free agent QBs who are better than Winston.The one thing I don’t like is DA anointing Winston the starter without competition.

Tony RomoOffensive genius yes, but QB Guru? Not so much, what QB's outside of Brees did Payton leave his mark with?
100% agree. We go as far as Jameis takes us. My only real concern is the OL. We have Peat back from injury, an inconsistent Ruiz, no Armstead, & either a rookie in Penning or a journeyman in Hurst manning the blindside. Even back in his Tampa days, i noticed that Jameis tends to hold on to ball a tick or two longer.On paper the saints have reloaded with amazing talent and addressed our weaknesses with potential future stars.
If Winston can pick up where he left off last year and not force balls into traffic we can be as good as we’ve ever been. I’m really excited about this year, more so than last year.
