if you firmly believe that as true, the only inarguable stance you can make is Taysom won't be on the roster come next year. If you take a 1st 10000/10000 times, then you damn well might as well take the 2nd too


We’d take either a 1 or 2 but we know damn well nobody is giving that up for him. He’s unproven as a qb and he’s too old to give up legit capital as a jack of all trades kinda guy. He’s a part time player to boot.

I guess drew is just lying his arse off too talking about taking playing time away from him.


Good point. It’s exceedingly rare for Drew to be complimentary of his teammates and give safe answers. This is extremely out of character for him...And by out of character I mean completely in character for pretty much any guy he’s ever played with here. This is the equivalent of coach speak and nothing more. I’m sure he’d love to get paid another 25-30m and take less snaps at 42.

There may be some truth to Brees coming back for a bridge year. Saints sell him on being a game manager, with Taysom taking over 20% of the snaps. Keeps Brees fresh and gives him less wear and tear.

Triplett basically laid this exact scenario out a few days ago so that must be what the Saints are selling to Drew and Taysom
