A win today would mean a lot more than just a number in the standings. For our new QB, this is the kind of stage that can change the conversation about the future in New Orleans.
What a win would mean:
• Credibility. Beating Miami on the road shows he can deliver in tough environments.
• Confidence. Young quarterbacks grow fast when they stack good performances.
• Control of the locker room. Teammates rally around a QB who proves he can fight and finish.
• Momentum. The season has been rough — but a win here would shift the tone moving forward.
What to watch for today:
• Composure early. First quarter matters. If he settles in quickly, the offense can breathe.
• Decision-making. Quick reads, smart throws, no forced mistakes.
• Red-zone execution. Field goals won’t beat Miami. Need touchdowns.
• Protection. The O-line has to keep him upright long enough to let him work.
• Defense helping him out. Short fields and turnovers make life easier for a young QB.
Today is a chance — for the team and for the guy under center — to show what the future might look like.
Who Dat.
