For those of us who can't listen to a 12 min radio segment can you give a synopsis?

The Saints believe internally that Taysom Hill is the long term successor to Drew Brees.

It was a pretty short part of the interview. He said pretty much this

Does he have a source or is he just echoing what he heard from Buck during Saints games?

This is weird because it seems like all of the evidence is to the contrary

Probably, Payton thinks if he has another 2 years, he can teach Taysom to

It's just difficult to see this at Taysom's age

Young was pretty dang old before he became a true pocket passer. Just saying

No reason to think Taysom couldn't play for another decade @ QB. Obviously he won't by taking those shots NFL type hits

How many 39 year old QBs are there?

How many QBs run a 4.4 and are nimble while being built like a Greek god?

My point is there are 2 starting QBs in the NFL that are that old. Drew Brees and Tom Brady

My point is that SP thinks he can develop Taysom into a proficient passer. If he's a proficient passer, he's still got

Just picked him up and stuffed him away on my Dynasty league.

In this case they can use him in other ways and still take time to develop him.

Taysom is 29. He will be 31 by then. The only comparable player I can think of would be Steve Young.

Taysom is the long term successor to Drew Brees, who is very old

If that were true they would play him. When Joe Montana got hurt Steve Young

Then why do they run him on ST?

Aircooled

9/19/19 4:01pm

Because he was a 3rd string QB.

Mises

so why isn't Hill starting right now with Brees hurt??

9/19/19 4:14pm

Because TB’s skill set more closely resembles Drew Brees.

There's also a difference of 6.5 mil difference in investment
