Jameis running? On that defense? If Taysom was in there I could see your argument but JW is no threat to take off and hurt a defense with his legs.

Anytime we need to stretch the field, Taysom is under center. Brees can no longer effectively throw the deep pass (25-30 yards) consistently.

Sanders & 3quan have been limited with #9.

Coach most likely knew Drew's injuries and limitations that's probably why Taysom was such a valuable part of the game plan. I suspect SP freaked when he knew Taysom was out for the Bucs game. Same thing probably with Thomas.

I didn't say a rushing threat, I said athletic ability the run from spread out wide to back to the middle of the field. Never said or intended for Jameis to be a rushing threat.
