You wanted to take out a HOF QB to put in a guy who threw six passes all season for a game winning drive in the playoffs?

On THAT day in THAT game, yes! Taysom was unstoppable all game on THAT day. Drew was not doing much, the O-line was getting whipped and Drew can't move around very well so again, yes I would have put Taysom in on that drive. The momentum he had late in that game was tangible, you could see it clearly. For perhaps the first time ever, I did not have any confidence in our Drew Brees lead offense getting the job done late in that game.
From a pure spectator standpoint, I would be curious to see what the aftermath would have been from that game IF Taysom would have gone in, and IF he would have lead us to a Win. Payton still turns to Drew the next week I'm sure, but how much does Taysom get in at QB from that point? It would have no doubt had to be increased snaps. And supposedly Drew had told some guys at the Pro Bowl that he was leaning towards retirement, I think if Payton had turned to Taysom in that Minnesota game and Taysom had got the job done and then increased his QB snaps in the weeks following that Drew would likely have retired
