I'm guessing Winston is a UFA, but then again he's been in Payton's scheme for a year now and certainly he offers the QB athleticism coveted these days.
Arians, IMO, is an interesting offensive guru as a HC. He goes for the defense's throat and he knows giveaways go with his high-risk, high-reward mindset. But Winston earned his way out the door -- "I shouldn't
have to coach you to avoid dumb giveaways," that sort of admonishment from Arians -- and in Winston's place came Brady, to whom Arians might well have said, "I know I'm
not going to have to coach you to avoid dumb giveaways."
So, perhaps Payton is a good enough QB coach that he can weed-out Winston's recklessness while with the Buccaneers, save the better part of Winston's game, and have a very promising upgrade at QB over the fading Brees for 2021.
Your thoughts?
