Who will start for the Saints at QB in the opener?

[Couchpotato]

The Saints lossed. The Saint D was awful again.

No excuses though. ROFL

The question is how is Rattler doing, and the visual evidence is that he is truly an elite young QB prospect sorely in need of a better supporting cast.

And he makes throws only about 10 others can make today. On a pure "quality of arm" measure, Rattler is top 5 in the NFL right now.

You have to be just trolling now.

Spencer Rattler is a starting QB playing at a very high level for a team with a lame supporting cast.

You were predicting he'd get benched, that Shough would beat him out.


LOL!!!!

By what metric is Rattler playing "at a very high level"? I mean other than because you say he is?

Spencer Rattler sets mark for highest PFF grade in loss to Patriots

Saints QB Spencer Rattler earned the highest PFF grade of the season, leading New Orleans’ top performers despite the loss to New England.

www.louisianasports.net

Rattler’s 93.2 grade is the highest grade earned by a Saints player with more than 15 snaps in a game so far this year. He finished Sunday’s game 20/26 for 227 yards. PFF credits just one drop on Rattler’s six incomplete passes, which many would argue should be more

Kellen Moore impressed by Spencer Rattler’s ‘high level’ play

Saints QB Spencer Rattler continues to impress despite the loss to New England, showing major growth and chemistry with head coach Kellen Moore.

Spencer Rattler’s latest solid outing for Saints undermined by untimely mistakes in loss to Patriots

Spencer Rattler posted similar passing numbers to New England’s Drake Maye on Sunday, only to walk off the Superdome field feeling far less satisfied.

Let's shut down the Country, Rattler threw an interception at CHI.

But no shutdown for bone-headed Trevor or #1draft Ward who un-touched just politely drops the ball on the five yard line for a pickup6, not for chowderhead Gino or Wentz whos' only skill seems to be throwing the ball away sideways OB. Yet they find jobs?

Low football IQ not included. I could go on. What a bleeping circus. SLINGING TUA perhaps? Murray? Hey at least they can move.

Don't get me started on Foldo Fluko either. That phony fairytale will crash like he always has.


Oh-oh, lil' scambling Spencer just threw#2 but more like a Punt on this one. No return down the sidelines. New Orleans is still alive? 4th QTR.

Trevor Lawrence is widely seen as a bust, but he was a #1 pick and Jacksonville paid him a shit ton of money so he's the QB until the contract is reasonable to move on from.

or #1draft Ward who un-touched just politely drops the ball on the five yard line for a pickup6,

Ward is a rookie, and there's a reason his team picked #1 over all last year and his head coach just got fired.

not for chowderhead Gino or Wentz whos' only skill seems to be throwing the ball away sideways OB. Yet they find jobs?

Wentz is a back up. He's in the game because McCarthy is injured. Not that Im certain Minny would be doing better with him over Wentz. They are also playing the defending SB champs who have just come off 2 bad losses and are trying to right the ship.

Since when is Gino Smith seen as anything other than an NFL journeyman/back up. Do you think the Raiders think Gino is their franchise QB or is he a cheap place holder until they draft one?

I feel a benching coming in the near future. I could be wrong though.

I only see 2-INT (i saw that). Ans a fumble? By the Rattler?

Why would waste the season on Gino (failure everywhere)? Evidently they want to tank? Or stupid? They chose him in the off season as "the savior". Hand-picked out of all the choices over months. Praised.

You're right. Wentz was a little better than AVG until crunch time. McCaffery might have ran to a late victory?

Gino had played well the year before in Seattle. The question is who is it they should have gotten? It was a weak QB draft class and the QB FA market wasn't great either. To be honest the way Gino played last year and recentlyt fits into Carrols offensive mindset. QB manages the game, doesnt commit a ton of turnovers, makes a few plays along the way but it's a run first/defensive mindset. Gino just cant stop turning it over this year. He's on pace to throw 3 times the picks this year as last.

McCaffery is the RB in SF. McCarthy is the QB. As far as what he would have done it's tough to say. He hasnt played enough to know IMO.

Gino KEPT SEA from the playoffs. He is a bust. The guy from NE. Eent to DAL Milton? There are QB out there. Howard from Ohio state,Brisset is better. I cant remember them all. O'Donnell is better, with good game plan to fit your QB. Probably Daniel Jones was available to them. League MVP now. Lol!

McCarty already ran MINN to one win, then got hurt. His ceiling way above old Wentz. He could have perhaps saved this game today. Wentz was useless when things got tight.

Gino KEPT SEA from the playoffs. He is a bust.

NFL journeyman/back up. To be a bust you have to under perform expectations Gino didn’t/doesnt.

The guy from NE. Eent to DAL Milton?

He wasn’t available and he’s not good. He’s big and has a big arm but he’s not good.

There are QB out there. Howard from Ohio state,

He’s hurt

Brisset is better.

Hes an NFL journeyman/backup. He’s no better than Gino really he’s just playing with a better roster/team right now.

I cant remember them all. O'Donnell is better, with good game plan to fit your QB. Probably Daniel Jones was available to them. League MVP now. Lol!

That’s Shane Stichand not Jones and Mayfield is the current MVP with Mahomes at his heels.

McCarty already ran MINN to one win, then got hurt. His ceiling way above old Wentz. He could have perhaps saved this game today. Wentz was useless when things got tight.

McCarthy has only played 2 games his entire career. Has 300 yds, 2 tds and 3 picks 1-1. Not sure how you are extrapolating anything from that let alone that he’s better than Wentz right now . Wentz games. 1000 yds 5 tds 4 picks. 2-2.


Bottom line the Raiders are rebuilding, they aren’t Jacoby Brisset away from winning their division

The subject of Spencer/Caleb at OU is still a sore subject.

All young QBs need to be reminded that "it isn't that easy" and days like today will tell us a lot about Spencer. How does he handle it? To be a Franchise QB, he needs to admit it wasn't his best day and make sure next game he is back in focus.

There are a ton of "rumors" about the Saints being involved in trades. Kamara told the NFL he won't show up if he is traded.

Devaugn Vele has been hurt and still isn't 100% and isn't active. He needs to get that way soon.

He needs to respond like Pavia. Pavia had a tough game against Bama. He responded with a Heisman game against LSU.

Rattler worse days are better than Ginos best days. I watched a lot of SEA last year. Gino is a turnover machine at the worst times. Pete Carrol is nuts.

They also drafted a tiny RB, not a QB. I was shocked. Now what? 1-5?

Nix, McCarty, Rattler, Dart, 49r QB, CHI QB. They can run and save games. McCarty did it before he got hurt. Its a killer to moral, you got it all stopped and here goes a QB at good speed around the end or up the middle. Statue QB are one dimensional. Since 81' Montana.

I guess that is what I would look for. The good ones can mostly avoid the hurt. And yes, IMHO saw Gino run surprisingly well early season at SEA.

The defense cant stop it all?
