The Official Eating Crow About Taysom Thread

Only thing Falcons had close to stopping the run game and Murray was Tyeler Davison, and once we doubled and rolled him out, it was done...

Great opportunity to curtail the workload for Kamara so he'll be full-strength for the tournament...

When the win is absolutely guaranteed then fine. Until then I hope to see every hand on deck.

Lol just said the same thing in another thread. No need to use Kamara in a role that just as easily suits Murray if not more so.

If/when Taysom takes off …

Protect the football. Ball security is paramount.

Yep, I was skeptical so I am going to have to eat some crow here too.

I think I got too hung up on the fact that the sample size of Taysom's pass attempts since he's been in the NFL was pretty small so I figured Payton would start Taysom and maybe use him for the 1st play only and then have Jameis in there as the QB. Sort of a little Sean Payton subterfuge.

Instead, Payton knew what he was doing as Taysom played incredibly well and my misgivings were completely unfounded.

On this holiday I am thankful that I was wrong!

Same for Sanders. He was stripped after the comeback catch the same way Hill was.

I want to see jameis come in for the Atlanta game and rip through their defense

I don’t believe HIll is the franchise QB
And Winston has huge upside but you have to let him show it out on the field

Winston can do great things if he tones down the turnovers

Sean - you are an aggressive coach - try a little QB variation...

Or do it this week in Denver

Yeah, it's too early to eat crow unless you were guaranteeing a loss to Falcons because TH was starting. We need to see him against better defenses when they have more film on what SP will design for him before declaring him the next Saints franchise QB.

Spoke a bit too soon. We faced a competent defense today with our full complement of weapons and Taysom looked like hot garbage. Plus, Kamara’s value has plummeted because the passes aren’t coming his way. We’ll see how things look when we face the Falcons again next week with them having tape on this Taysom offense.
