Brees is coming back.

For some reason, I see Bridgewater in Indy.  Hill is like a picture in an art studio---looks great there, where the proper lighting and surroundings, but get it home and you think, "Why did I buy this?"

Pretty much. If we move on from Cam the only QB that has done it and looked decent doing so is Teddy. And yes, I'm biased, but the truth is the truth. My only question with Teddy is if he can do more than just manage the game. I think he's a good fit in the right offense, but I'm not sure he has the physical tools to carry the Franchise all the way to the Super Bowl.

I love the guy, and hope I'm wrong if he were to come here.

I feel like he would thrive under Brady personally I’d love to see him here if we get rid of Cam.

If we trade Newton I could definitely see us going after Hill or Bridgewater. 

I am a long way from convinced Hill will ever be more than a novelty.  Among everything else, he will be 30 by season's start and has to be considered a project.  I don't know about anybody else, but I'm not interested in a 30-year-old project under center, Cam or no Cam.  In fact, if we are rebuilding he fails the age test right out of the chute.

Things could get interesting in NOLA.  Bridgewater was decent in his starts when Brees was out, and I think he has interest around the league.  Hill wants a shot at starting sooner rather than later (which, as I have indicated would have to be considered a grand experiment).  They could wind up scrambling around looking for a backup, the way this is going.  And from what I know of their cap situation, it will need to be a budget backup.

Bridgewater should get much more serious interest than Hill.  I could see Bridgewater in Indy, New England, or Vegas next year, and I am sure there are other teams interested in him.  Then again, I can see almost any QB who is available and has any name recognition in Vegas next year.

I saw somewhere that the Cardinals might be interested in Hill as a backup to Murray.  I assume they would continue the novelty role, too.

He is definitely on the decline.   The Saints won’t win a title with him and it stops their development of new talent, perfect.

besides being really good, brees is one greedy dude...hes not walking away from any cash

He's a conservative capitalist and gonna get his.  'Murica! 

[Khyber53]

The guy is still better than 90% of the starters in the league at this point in his career and age in life. He's still capable and isn't crippled with injuries. Yeah, even though I hate to see us have to face him twice a year (at least), it would be a shame for him to bail out now.

And as to greed... how many of you would give anything if your boss said you'd get an additional $50k for working for them next season? Greed or not, most of you are just showing some ignorance.

He will be back since he has agreed to terms with the Aints and signed a contract. Brees has signed for a one year deal for his last attempt for the Lombardi before he finally retires.

I expect Hill to be like Jeff Lewis. You hear how much offensive genius Payton likes him and someone pulls the trigger on signing him. Then in about 6 games(including preseason) his NFL career is over.

The Saints hault the progress of their franchise for now.

Brees sucks now. Just goes to show you how deceptive stats can be. Had nice stats last year but he sucks.

He had nearly a 7:1 TD-INT ratio, led the league in completion % (again), and was 2nd in the league in QB rating last year.

Just go sit down, my dude. Don’t dig your hole any deeper.

I’ll take that wager if you’d like to put a number on it...

well our secondary isn't as big a problem now...he couldn't throw deep last year.

Who needs to throw deep when y’all run defense was 25th in attempts, 29th in yards, and dead last in YPC and TD’s surrendered?

And if we do need to throw deep, we’ll just let the Mormon Missile chuck it downfield.

I think about 27 teams wished that they had a QB who Sucked as much as Brees did last year.

Good, this helps our tank.  Hope we don't end up the sucker franchise left holding the bag after shelling out for Bridgewater

Bridgewater isn’t a bad QB by any means, he just can’t be expected to shoulder the entire load and carry a team week in and week out.

Our defense played absolutely out of their minds in the 5 games Brees was out and he started. If the defense didn’t overachieve those 5 games, we more than likely lose at least two, possibly three in that span instead of going 5-0.

He needs to go to the perfect situation, and I think that’s what he’s looking for if he does decide to leave. He knows he has it here, so unless a team comes offering an insane amount of money, it wouldn’t surprise me to see him turn down another starting job that’s an ill-fit (like he turned down Miami last year) to stay in New Orleans again.

If y’all want Hill, y’all can hand over that 7th overall pick and I’ll personally drop him off to y’all facility myself.

Payton is.

He's calling him the next Steve Young, and per guys like Peter King it's no smokescreen. He really believes it.

I don't know whether that's right or not, but I am convinced that Peyton thinks it's true.

If Payton truly thought that, Hill would've played QB while Brees was out. 

Hill is a JAG.

No not going to happen. You can not sign him. Or not sign Bridgwater. Whichever.
