Hope Burns crushes him and he’s out for the year again. Fug the Saints

He'll get'em.

Call me a homer, but I believe we are going to be much better next year, regardless of whom is QB.

ETA: matter of fact, I would bet that we are much better with Teddy next year then we were is year.

I will still be surprised if he isn't No's qb.

Here's how I understand the logic behind it...

Brees knows he's not going to get paid either way because he's retiring, so his salary being on the books only affects the Saints negatively with no benefit..

To fix this, he reduces his salary to league minimum. The Saints can't get entirely away from his contract, but this does a lot to lessen the impact of it.

It's a "team player" sort of thing, and the Saints can definitely use the cap relief.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
