It's great to see Taysom Hill of the Saints off to a good start. He has 4 rushes for 24 yards so far.
Yes indeed! Taysom was gashing the Panthers defense!It's great to see Taysom Hill of the Saints off to a good start. He has 4 rushes for 24 yards so far.
Needs more balls thrown his way so he can put that behind him. Hopefully he gets the chance but, I'm not optimistic he will...Damn, Gunner with a nightmarish game, hope he's still on the team after this.
Gunner's mainly a kick returner and he made a real bad mental error in that department tonight already. He's their fifth or sixth receiver and one of them ahead of him is Calvin Austin, who I've mentioned is kind of a Black version of Gunner except that he was drafted in the fourth round last year while Gunner is a lowly UFA. Gunner's hold on a roster spot is now very tenuous.Needs more balls thrown his way so he can put that behind him. Hopefully he gets the chance but, I'm not optimistic he will...

I agree that he should be used almost exclusively as a running back, as few teams have been able to stop him. When Kamara comes back, he should be the change of pace guy and they’d be a good combo. Unfortunately I think the QB ship has sailed but he’s still useful for an occasional pass to keep the defense honest.I’ve been saying for the last three years, Taysom Hill gives the Saints the very best chance to win. He is a better dual-threat quarterback than Justin Fields and likely better than Lamar Jackson. The only reason he was not given the chance is because he is white. Were his melanin content higher, the media and general manager would be salivating over his “new age football” potential.
As it is, he is relegated to Swiss Army Back, or X Back as in X-Factor. If not given the opportunity to become the quarterback, he should be designated a running back and be theirs primary ball carrier as he is easily their most talented runner. He could post a 1,000 yard season if given the opportunity.
And yet… Thielen is, by far, the best receiver on that team. The DWFs do not realize he actually makes that clown throwing the ball look far better than he actually is. I do wish he had signed with another organization as Bryce Young has bust written all over him.Was watching the Saints-Panthers game and Dan Orlovsky said that Bryce Young's poor night was the result of none of his receivers getting separation. As he was saying that, there was a perp shot first of Thielen and then of Hayden Hurst. Very obvious Caste clown comment made in conjunction with the producer instantly following up with the "correct" visuals that virtually no DWFs watching likely noticed.

I noticed that as well. Thielen caught 7 of 9 targets with a TD and a 2 PT conversion and Hurst caught 3 of 3. The speedster Mingo only caught 3 of 8, so maybe our guys aren’t the problem.Was watching the Saints-Panthers game and Dan Orlovsky said that Bryce Young's poor night was the result of none of his receivers getting separation.
