Is JPP can’t go for the Buc’s, may that equals out when it comes to blocking responsibilities.

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.

Don't forget about Burton. He's been pretty helpful and kind of an unsung hero for the team. The guy is a good blocker and can catch when called upon.

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...

Unlike other teams who attack reserves, we seem to struggle with guys we've no film; we may want to get that fixed...
