This week, we take a deep dive into the history of the quarterback position for the Saints from Billy Kilmer all the way to Jameis Winston.
Some of them weren't as bad as you remember.

The Billy Joes were that bad.

Guido Merkens was that bad too....

I'm not going to really count Guido. He was more of a guy who got thrown in at QB every so often. He was more of a special teams guy.

We also did not count Guido.

The first season I started watching Saints football was in 2000. You really have to wonder what would have happened if Jeff Blake had not gotten hurt that year. Sure, Brooks was solid (yet inconsistent), but you always think of the what-ifs. How far could Blake have taken them that year, and beyond?

I thought Tolliver was pretty good, considering the insanity around him (Abramowicz, Collins, Shuler, Wuerffel, Ditka, etc.)
Between the Hebert holdout and the arrival of Payton, the Saints were an extremely poorly run organization. Nobody named Billy Joe was anywhere near the top of the list of things wrong.

Tolliver had the physical skill, but Hobert was smarter with the ball. He just couldn’t make the throws.
Richard Todd was fricking woeful. The Jets robbed us.

I listened to all of the podcasts on a road trip, good stuff. No mention of Brett Maxie as too safety is an oversight.
Gene Atkins gets the nod as best safety, IMO.
I had the fortune to befriend Vaughan Johnson and everything he said about him is true. He was the nicest guy you’d ever want to meet, yet ridiculously intimidating, lol. His hands were huge and like stone, and even a year before his death, he still enjoyed cutting wood for a work out.
Frank Warren is ridiculously underrated. Even Vaughan said he was often the best player on the field not named Rickey jackson. He generated sacks as a down lineman in a 34. Let that sink in.
Richard Todd deserves more hate and ther 92 team was unlucky, but very fricking good.

No Chris Everett?

They talked a lot about him and they were 100% spot on. He was a legit QB for us, is legit top 5 in our history.
