The Official Eating Crow About Taysom Thread

[Boston Saint]

I’m not beating the drum to make Winston a starter by any means, but I’d like to point out few things. A lot is made of his 30 int (and 33 TD) performance last year and rightfully so perhaps. However, in 2005, Brett Favre threw 29 ints with only 20 TDs. He also had seasons of 19-24 and 22-23 ratios. Winston has not had a season yet with more Int than TDs. PFR also credits Favre with 10 fumbles in 2005.

Now, obviously I’m not saying that Winston can be Favre, but to discard a 33 TD season with 5,000 yards because he threw Ints in a Bruce A. system is a little rush to judgement

Hill said the offensive game plan “drastically changed” after the Broncos’ quarterbacks were deemed ineligible for the game, saying that the Saints moved to a more conservative approach with the offensive play-calling.

Ha Ha! I just saw a video of Kamara saying it didn’t change much. Too funny!

Some of you want to believe Taysom isnt just a athlete. Taysom is going to be Kordel Stewart all over again. Hes a better athlete than QB. Believe them when someone shows you who they really are.

I get what you're saying. But did you feel pretty good about him last week?

And I agree with your point. Hill is a better athlete than QB right now. But being a QB can be learned. An athlete cannot. Still...Hill has only been asked to be an "athlete" his entire career with the Saints. He's been a QB for 2 games.

I still wanna see how he does next game.

He turned into a game manager because Payton saw he was going to cost us the game throwing it.

I’m asking this not trying to sound combative, but could the O line not having the left side against a very good Denver D line not been a part of this? This reminded me of how Minn dominated the Saints line in last year’s playoffs. Let’s let a few games play out before we spectators decide who can and can’t be QBs ?

He didn't have that swagger Sunday. Deer in a headlights vibes....

Taysom was a QB in college and has worked with Drew for years. He can't make reads, his accuracy is spotty, and his arm strength is not elite. I love him as a player, but if his starting QB light has not come on by now it's nto going to.

I just don’t see where you say he “can’t “ do something. The pass he completed to Thomas at the down marker (the challenged one) was an excellent example of footwork and timing.
