Bringing two statements together - play-calling + Taysom throwing - Payton's deep shot call against Chicago was nearly flawless and a likely TD had Taysom thrown it a 1/2 second earlier.

There's no reason we shouldn't use Taysom in the right situations.

In that instance, I must say I didn't mind the playcall, my issue is Payton putting a guy in there that won't pull the trigger. This isn't the first time Taysom took too long to diagnose a play and I think the more he's in the game like that, the more it'll hold us back.

Anticipation. Throwing receivers open.

At age 31, I don't think Taysom will ever get to that point. Not mad at Taysom, we won but this is a glaring weakness.

More importantly, gotta stop fumbling the football.
