How the Saints plan to limit Cleveland QB Tyrod Taylor's ability to scramble

We don't have issues with running QB's. We have issues with pocket QB's who decide to run because we aren't gameplanning for them to do so. We're rushing the QB...not trying to contain them in the pocket. They'll make an effort to actually contain Taylor in the pocket and make him make throws. This is a completely different situation. Do you remember how we did the Bills?

Bingo. Just ask Cam Newton.

You'd think we play zone 3rd & long where no pocket passing QB should be able to outrun our LBs & Safeties. Nobody's back should be turned to the QB in zone unless the routes are way down field.

Lack of communication & discipline. This is basic football.

I agree...just like last year when we beat him in Buffalo, I see the same thing happening...but.....I’m worried about Gordon, Njoku, and Landry if our secondary doesn’t get their act together.

The way Lattimore played Im really worried about Landry. Im shocked Latt looked that bad. I feel our defensive backs where just as bad as our D line and our DBs basically saved the fort last year with the exception of one play. You have to give Fitz credit too though. He balled out of his mind.

Landry isn't anywhere near the size, speed, and strength of Mike Evans. He's a great route runner, but he'll be doing most of his work in the slot. That's Patrick Robinson's match up. Lattimore will likely be following Josh Gordon around.

Hopefully Gordon doesn't "smoke" Lattimore :-p
