Jameis Winston will post career numbers for the New Orleans Saints in 2020.

Here’s a question, and please, answer honestly. How many times have you thought about the New Orleans Saints offense and realized that you’re still picturing them with Drew Brees under center? It may not happen often, but you’ve done it at least once or twice right?

It’s okay! No one’s going to take your fan badge away from you or anything. It’s an honest mistake. After all, the 2021-2022 season will be the first in 16 years where the Saints will trot someone out other than the future Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee to be the signal-caller on offense.

The candidates are Taysom Hill and Jameis Winston. Most of us would probably believe that Winston is the guy then right? Still regardless of where you are in that, here’s something that we all can agree on. Jameis can see over the offensive line a little better than Brees could (he’s four inches taller than the six-foot-tall former Saints legend), but at this point, we’d have no hesitation in saying that, other than arm strength, when Winston’s career is over, Mr. Brees will probably still have been better at everything else.

Fear not Saints fans. that isn’t an indictment. Jameis Winston is still good enough with this team and its coaches to get you to the promised land (or at minimum) a deep playoff run. Here’s your bold prediction. This will be a career year for your new starting quarterback, and here are two reasons why.
