It stinks. I don't see it but CSP does and is not ready to give up on Grayson and sadly Grayson is not ready to be a back up to Brees.

I don't get why we keep McCown. Grayson, head coach, offensive coordinator, and qb coach aren't enough sideline eyes for brees or something?

I think that Carolina game last year is still carrying McCown as the Saints think he might be serviceable in a pinch.

This preseason I did not see any difference between him and Grayson but the oline for them was terrible and they ran around trying not to get killed.

No, which makes it a waste of a position. How many times do you have two quarterbacks taken out in a game? And if that were to happen do you really think a third string QB is going to rally your team for a win? At the point your backup goes down you can chalk the game up as a loss. Regroup during the week and sign a veteran, or two if needed, and move forward. At that point your third QB, who should only be on your practice squad at this point, moves up if needed. But stop wasting a roster spot that is just going to be inactive on a third string QB prospect.

With that O Line I'm surprised we didn't keep 7 QBs.

Why does that matter? You're going to have 7 inactives every game. Who cares if it's a 3rd QB or a 5th DE?

If there was clearly someone better than Grayson or McCown that we cut maybe I would care, but we had a bunch of shite at the bottom this year. No one I was sorry to see go aside from Tapp, but he is likely coming back post week one.
