Bridgewater was indecisive and held the ball too long. He contributed to the poor OL play and holding calls. The line can only block for so long. Aaron Donald is just Aaron Donald. The guy had 20 sacks last year as an interior lineman. Maybe the best player in the NFL.
I'm not talking about special teams. I'm talking about bringing in a quarterback who can run or pass. I could see Driskel playing that role for someone. It could be the Saints if Tayson Hill ends up starting in a couple weeks. Hill wasn't the first player Payton recruited to play that role. He tried to get Tim Tebow to sign and play the "Taysom Hill" role.
As long as Taysom Hill stays away from Utah State, he should be fine. During college, he suffered 4 different season ending injuries. Three of those season ending injuries happened while playing against Utah State. That's kinda weird.

Driskel has signed with the Detroit Lions....

Funny that you ask:https://theathletic.com/1220142/2019/09/18/saints-film-room-teddy-bridgewater-will-have-to-take-more-risks-to-succeed-in-n-o/?fbclid=IwAR0RvccxvxJt0dFOgiGs8HareFJKszTONeZuGKmc hWNSfksnyD2rFPMTOx4
I've said for a while that J'Mar is being over-coached. He plays better when he plays fast and loose. Sounds like Teddy may need to loosen up a bit too.

There is a silver lining in this Brees' injury. Up to now the very lousy Teddy "water under the bridge" was slated as heir-apparent to the Saints' starting job. Now that Payton has been forced to deal with that reality he's seen the truth. Now maybe the Saints will actually get serious finding a replacement for Brees.
