This helps because Drew won’t be taken out for some gadget or shot play. Those calls mess with the flow of the game at times.

Gonna take away a red zone option though which could really hurt us.

And some score touchdowns...

The rhythm disruption you allude is because of the failure to diversify the play call when Taysom's number is called in similar situations...

When no-nothing fans actually do know who's getting the ball and where the Saints are going with it, the likelihood of the opposing defense correlates as well...

Or it can create turnovers with a wide open Harris streaking down the field. Or fumbles when it’s time to close out games. Or keep AK from scoring not 6 but 7 touchdowns in one game. Or piss off a first ballot HOF QB for disrupting his rhythm. We’ve got above great RB’s to pick up that short yardage. Ain’t nobody fooled when Taysom comes in the game at QB. The only advantage is that it creates an extra blocker because he’s running the ball.
