Most of those in the media would need to learn how to code. They might be more useful.

The print writers also need to reinstall spell check.

You wouldn't be getting any of mine.

I agree. He’s taken major steps to bond and create chemistry. Not saying that Taysom hasn’t but I imagine there was a conversation that went kind of like this:

Taysom-“Hey fellas you wanna come on over so we can go over some stuff?”

Everyone else-“ Nah man we good, we will be over here. Thanks though!”

To be nice they may ask him if he wants to come out and block or something.

The part in the video that pointed out a decision needs to be made sooner rather than later so they can have time to install an offense was a fair point. I’m excited and will be behind whoever as long as they are doing their part to help us win games. I really don’t see how fans can play favorites. The best man for the job will get it and that’s what we should all hope for. Part of what makes Winston the best man for the job is having Hill available to fill his role in the offense. As others have said.

Taysom will get an even chance to start but I believe that Winston will win the training camp battle. Most people seem to agree but we'll see at TC who looks better. I'm pulling for the better man to win and not one player I like better for the job.

If Kamara as a rookie could beat out Ingram and Peterson for serious playing time, I can't rule out Book beating out Hill and Winston. Yes Book has a ton to learn in a short time, but if he delights in training camp and feels like the best option, Payton won't look past Book for the principle of "playing it safe".

If it's close, even if Taysom is slightly better, the job is already Winston's to lose...

Taysom Hill has to not only wow Sean and the coaching staff, he's got to wow his teammates as well...

And by wow means to leave little doubt this team's ceiling is higher with Taysom Hill under center...

This is already a tilted competition, that's why Taysom has to not only do it better, but he has to be way better than Winston...

I agree. The fact that Hill has real value outside of the role of QB is a major factor. That is the driving force behind Hill needing to be far and away a better option at QB for him to get the starting role. Personally I have seen nothing from Hill that demonstrates that he has a greater ability to play QB than Winston. Nothing.
