Is Teddy a Checkdown QB?

That's within the system, though.

Playing in our offense, you kind of expect that.

I think it is the Teddy effect. 

Andy Reid's system is essentially what it is.  He got rid of Alex Smith because Alex Smith wouldn't pull the trigger on enough plays.  He neutered Reid's offense.  That is what Teddy is doing to Joe Brady's offense.  Limiting it.

THIS. My God I just don't get it. Why do we have to keep blaming coaches for Teddy's inadequacies?

We're a fan base that has cried foul that Brees pads stats with his dink and dunk playing style (and lots of YAC) - on his way to like an .800 record against us. 

I used to be baffled about it, now I just accept that some people will never learn.

Is this not the Payton offense?  This offense is designed to run confusing routes and though a lot of underneath stuff comes open, a lot of stuff opens up down field too.  We leave so many points out there week after week.  You have to see it dude.

It's literally Sean Payton's offence. Literally.

Teddy is their guy though....they chose to go out and get him in FA when his "inadequacies" were pretty well-documented.  I don't see how you can not blame the coaches who looked at hours and hours of tape of Teddy's entire career and thought "Yep, THAT'S our guy! Marty, bust out the checkbook".  He is who we thought he was, right?  Well Brady and Rhule were apparently the only two people who didn't know about Teddy's limitations.

Imagine being a supervisor at an office job and hiring your buddy who just got fired from his last job for slacking off.  You vouch for him to your manager and say "Boss, this is absolutely the guy for the job" and lo and behold, your team's numbers take a huge nosedive cause this dude is just deadweight, constantly slacking off.  Then you actually have the nerve to go to your manager and blame that employee when you went out of your way to bring him in and he ends up doing exactly what he has always done.  That ain't how the real world works, dude.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
