What we saw from Teddy here is exactly what the Saints had in Teddy as well. He didnt really change... he just showed what his ceiling was. 

Idk.  I get your sentiment, but he actually lost games for us here.  He didn't do that in New Orleans, but a lot of that was because he was being asked to do more than he was capable of.

Again, I want to emphasize, I didn't want Teddy in the first place, because I knew he was just a game manager.

 he said Carolina is a unicorn, got excited talking about the job

No that’s not what he said. He said an open spot with an in place franchise QB is a unicorn. He went on to elaborate on that, saying that pretty much every open spot comes with QB issues

 What did Payton mean by "What you got here is a unicorn"

That wasn't exact wording. He said "it's an attractive job", then there was a stammering, a pause, and a shift describing the unicorn job. He basically was saying Carolina is as attractive job as they come because good luck finding that unicorn with a HoF QB already in place.

    • Calling carrier for getting punched in the nose just to keep us from a 5 on 3
    • I just mean it’s always offsetting in that situation.  I didn’t realize they called another penalty
    • And as I asked this again before, what goes into PFF's man open %, as I know you've brought that stat up before. Is that just the number of routes he gets open at any point during the route, or is it calculated on targets and if he was open when the ball got to him. Because like I pointed out so many times in the lead up to the draft, a big reason it was harder for him to get separation against man was because he not only had his man on him, but he was double or triple teamed on the majority of his routes this past year.  Just because of that alone, it was easier for him to get open against zone coverage where he could find holes and sit in them. Also, again, as been discussed so many times, his QB's play this year was awful, and lots of times his contested catches were due to him not delivering the ball on time when T-Mac got open.  Or just times he got open but wasn't targeted for whatever reason. So just using that stat as a way to say he struggles to get open against man is more likely than not, disingenuous. Hell, it's a PFF stat that you're using against him, yet at the same time, PFF absolutely loves him, he was their 4th overall player.   I posted this clip on here a week or so ago of the T-Mac vs Hunter game in 2023, where the anti T-Mac guys like to say Hunter shut him down.  But numerous times in this video you see T-Mac create tons of separation from Hunter but the ball wasn't thrown his way, plus a clear PI that wasn't called (and the one that was). https://x.com/4MR_Fetti/status/1918262063660454227 The "he can't separate" narrative is way overblown and become something more myth than reality.  No, he's not an elite separator like some of the quick twitch WRs, but he's so much better than the haters here like to say.
