Understanding Taysom's injuries, encouraged to see Saints will play to Taysom's strengths, his legs (not that he hasn't thrown some good, bad lasers)...

Rolling him out, away from that porous line, should help him not only give hiw WRs more time to get open, but he can take off if they don't respect his running...

At least Armstead is going to be back to cover his backside.

Taysom doesn’t run off-script though. His awareness to scramble is very low.

And he also needs to clean up those interceptions. He had 4 vs Dallas which could have easily been 6. If his finger was "bothered" by throws, he shouldn't be in there.

I think some are putting too much into the 3-1 record last season based on bad Atlanta teams & a Denver squad with a practice squad WR playing emergency QB.

But to your point, TH can't consistently be late with the ball & throwing behind the receivers.

Offensively, 2021 has been a mess.
