Winston rumor (1 Viewer)

[Saint Kamara]

He’s immature. We don’t go from the smartest QB in the league to one of the dumbest.

Bingo.

Rape isn't merely a "mistake".

Well he was obviously prosecuted

 

[MLU]

Waste of money. Doubt he would sign what we offered anyway.

If it's the only thing he's offered he will.

I'd rather the Pats pick him up. Take'em to the WC & throw 5 INT; while Brady in TB doesn't make the cut(even w/the booby prize extra).

Accused of rape. Stole crab legs. Stood on top of a table in a crowded FSU student union and yelled profanities about a woman. Accused of groping a female Uber driver.

I'm going with "bad person."

Just want to be clear. Often it's made to sound like he'd have a bunch of our players joining him somehow or that he'd corrupt our team someway.

He’s a joke... the players wouldn’t be corrupted by him, but this team is too strong to ever follow him... and if he wants to be a QB, a real/successful QB, being a leader is a prerequisite. The Saints would follow Taysom.

This guy needs a lot more than an offensive guru. He needs a life coach that can explain the importance of maturity to him. It was only 3 years ago that Winston got benched during our game in the Dome, and while standing on the sidelines, poked Lattimore in the back of the head and caused a brawl that could have seriously injured our star rookie. Then he pretended as if he did nothing, even though it happened DURING A TELEVISED NFL GAME with 1000 TV cameras all around him. This dude is a loser, and I wouldn't want him anywhere near our locker room.

I think you went a bit overboard here, players can mature yes and our team is probably one of the only ones (Pats come to mind too) who would be able to handle a guy with maturity concerns. Winston absolutely instigated the schuffle, but I don't know how you can blame him for Mike Evans actions - that guy has issues and it was the 2nd time that season he was involved in a similar situation. Are you saying you wouldn't take Mike Evans on this team if a similar opportunity arose? I highly doubt that.

You're talking about the team following him, he would be the #3 emergency QB.....

I know... I’m talking more about him as QB in total.

Taysom was the Saints 3rd QB last season... but if he had to be “the guy” I have no doubt he would lead and the team would follow.

i seriously doubt our oline would stop blocking and WRs stop catching passes if Winston had to take over.

 

[SquatchySaint]

Is your source coach Pete?

I'm nowhere near perfect, but I've never been accused of rape, or stolen anything, or groped a woman. I've made plenty of mistakes in my life, but what sets me apart from Jameis is that I learned from them. It's clear to me he hasn't and probably won't unless someone holds him accountable for his actions.

Where did I go overboard? My description of what happened was accurate. Go back and look at it.

And why would we take on a player with maturity issues that need to be handled? How about we take on a mature player and the coaches can spend their time working on improving his game? That would be time better spent.

I don't know enough about Evans, but if he has a history of losing it and flying off the handle like he did in that game, I wouldn't want him on the team either. I'd rather have good players that know how to act and carry themselves like professionals.

I did multiple times and while I admit Winston instigated the fight I don't know how anyone can say that fight was his doing and not Evans.

You're not improving the game of a mature player. Luke McCown didn't come here and get better. Too many fans are feeling that signing Winston would have a Taysom type feel as the heir apparent. Guys, this would be closer to a Ryan Griffin or Garrett Grayson role.
