In this case, yes. To a degree. The game day backup needs to be able to execute the game plan designed for the starter. That's why most every team has a backup with similar basic skillsets. That's the reason why Haener was Carr's game day backup. If Rattler becomes a fulltime starter some day I would expect we had a similar type of QB backing him up and the game planning could include a full spectrum of RPO type stuff. It makes perfect sense. But the playbook that Kubiak designed this year was based upon Carr's strengths and that will still be the main characteristic. Sure, they could add a twist here and there, but they aren't going to completely revamp everything at this point for Rattler. They simply do not have the time to do that based upon the CBA alone.

How about maybe, just maybe, that part of the Kubiak playbook was edited because of the skill set of the QB1? All I'm suggesting is that you are likely to see some Taysom Hill like plays with QB2 Rattler in because... well... he can actually RUN! Not a total revamp of the offensive scheme.
Just food for thought. ;)

Sorry, I'm a recovering optimist.

#metoo.
Injuries happen to every team so I'm hopeful that the Saints can cowboy up and be the team that started this season 2-0 looking All-world.

.... or possibly, piss poor performance.... or a blowout by either team.
