It has been one week since the New Orleans Saints chose quarterback Tyler Shough with the 40th pick of the NFL Draft. It seems as if ever since, the media has already anointed him as the starter for the team’s opener on Sept. 7.
In other words, the same “experts” who said the Saints would not restructure Derek Carr’s contract and would let him go are now saying Coach Kellen Moore will choose Shough and bypass Spencer Rattler, and at the same time dismiss Carr for real this time.
What’s true, and what isn’t? What make sense, and what doesn’t? Host Jim Derry spends asks Garland Gillen on FOX-8 on Friday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 369) presented by Evangeline Securities. Also, Jim and Garland talk “way too early” over/under win totals, and Jim’s “last Word” looks back 47 years to the May 3, 1978 flood.
