Great win but as many posters here have already pointed out ...

Don't take your play maker off the field on those short goal line situations.

Mike/Kamara gives us the best opportunity to score.

Correct the play call at the goal line before the half was ridiculous. Might as well have lined up for the FG instead.

Nice to see an elite receiver not *****ing about his touches.

Agreed. In a day and age where everyone takes the spotlight to push an agenda or market “their brand”. He talked about his QB and his concern for TB.

Solid character

That TD to Thomas could’ve won me my fantasy game. Payton brain fart

Teddy has Thomas and Kamara. Two great players for sure. But, the lack of anybody else to make even the smallest play is really hampering the Saints offense. Teddy is absolutely giving it his all. 2-0 is all that matters.

Teddy giving it his all as a game manager... because that’s all he offers. Hard for folks to make plays when he won’t throw the ball more than 10yds.

I’m not sure what people here expected from Teddy, but I have seen exactly what I expected to. A game manager that can win if everyone plays great around him. Teddy ranks 30th in QBR after 2 games, so if that’s giving it his all... ok.

I don’t think Teddy will put up enough points against Tampa, unless the D or special teams score, this game is likely a loss.

So what do you do to game plan on Sunday if you are Coach Payton/Carmichael?

	The Saints are 0-42 when running the ball less than 15 times in a game.
