Wouldn't surprise me if this is some sort of Payton double speak, think he likes to feel like he is pulling one over on everyone....media, opponent own fans, team etc. Just cuz he's starting doesn't mean he's taking majority of snaps. maybe he is, maybe he ain't. Way she goes boys

People on this board look at his handful of throws in a game during one-off plays and judge him on that. QB is about getting a rhythm and calming your nerves as well, that isn't easy to do if you only get 1 or 2 chances to throw a game.

You should look at his last preseason game he played for an accurate depiction of his QB performance.

"Hill’s performance through four preseason games was impressive, completing 40 of his 59 pass attempts (67.8%) to gain 443 yards through the air. Three of his passes scored touchdowns, and he threw just one interception — and none after his first outing. His decision-making was markedly improved over previous performances, as were his mechanics. He’s throwing a tighter spiral with a more efficient windup."

Ok but you have to understand that he’s literally only ever played this style of QB in preseason games.

Edit: Never mind. I don’t care about talking about the X’s and O’s of a Taysom led offense anymore. He’s the QB like it or not.

I expect him to be on a pretty short leash. If he turns the ball over early I think you will see Winston taking the majority of the snaps.
