He won't last at QB doing that.

We may see him overtrusting his line and taking a few sacks, he'll need to learn to chuck the ball, minimize down and distance, and live for a 3rd and manageable...

Taysom will be his own man with his own game; #WhoDatNation is hoping this is a Joe Montana to Steve Young type of exchange...

That’s exactly right brother. Taysom is naturally a one read scramble type of QB so we have to let him play to his strengths and not make him stand in the pocket.

Why do you say that? When Taysom comes in it is always on a designed play with one read, check down, or scramble. That is all the latitude he is being given on four snaps or less at QB per game. As much as I think Winston is the better choice right now, I cannot doubt what I haven't had a chance to see from Taysom to this point.

Bingo! That’s all we’ve seen from Taysom. There really isn’t much of a sample size to even debate. We have to just roll with what coach wants. I just want to win either way!

The big challenge, if Tayson truly gets the majority of the snaps, is for him to manage the hits he takes. He's a tough hombre for sure, but it'd be hard for him to truck defenders on every run and hold up. He'll need to step out of bounds or go to the ground more often to preserve his body.

Absolutely, although he may not like it, if its an early down he needs to slide or run out of bounds and live to play another one.

Looks like it isn’t a smokescreen.
