Jesus Christ

We just beat the best team in the league with JW & TS.

We are 5-2 and still have ATLx2, Car, TEN with no Henry, MIA, NYJ, and PHI. We will be be favored in all of those games. The path to double digit wins is clear.

Winston was fine but he was doing nothing more than managing a game. There’s no real drop off, that’s the point of having hill and simian in the system for a year plus

The other option is Trevor Seimian lol


The guy that just beat the best defense in the league is better than a guy that’s a 10 year gadget player that could never win a QB battle. I hate the fricking internet but it does show me how retarded most
People are

Taysom sucks at QB…. I’d take about 45 QB’s over him at QB and Siemian is one of them.

He’s an elite athlete that when he plays QB forgets about being an elite athlete and doesn’t ever run unless a designed running play, the least dangerous plays for a defense against any athletic QB.

His arm talent is below average.

As a multitude of use weapon, he’s one of our best players. As QB, he’s our worst player.

Not a tough decision.

, Payton is going to deploy him like a regular QB, which he sucks at. We saw last year that his pocket presence is terrible and he is a fumble waiting to happen.


His numbers and the teams record last season say otherwise, but don’t let the stats get in the way of your opinion.

With Ingram back and Taysom at least getting significant snaps, the stars have aligned for what I’ve wanted to see for years:

Gun Triple Option: Ingram dive, Kamara pitch

Just once.

He’s fine if you enjoy having a QB that cannot throw an accurate pass over 15yds or one that doesn’t involve Kamara in the pass game

Taysom probably won't be every down QB

It's because we are going to get bad QB play.

I like Taysom, But Sean gets predictable with him in there.

Interestingly, The play calling by Payton seems to improve after Winston left and no Taysom to fall back on.

He looks like he trust Trevor Siemian.

They should look at Philip Michael Rivers. Nothing against Trevor Siemian, but I'd sure like to see what Rivers could do. He's a Leader and Winner.

I'm worried too. Siemien made some nice throws under pressure. He would absolutely keep feeding Kamara. Taysom has zero touch on those passes. Floats deep balls and lasers for screens.

Let Taysom play. Look at Dak Prescott. He filled in for the great Romo and took his job. Just give this guy a shot and see what he is made of when he knows the entire team's success rides on his back.

Taysom owned the falcons last season.

Trevor really impressed me with how smoothly he ran the offense - he looked very comfortable in a tough spot. Late in the game, he did a great job avoiding sacks and threw some smart throwaways.

With our lack of receivers, I'd much rather CSP take a "best athletes on the field" approach and put Taysom in the backfield or split him out (along with Ingram, Kamara, and Harris). If Taysom isn't healthy enough for this, he isn't healthy enough to play QB.

Honestly, I do think Seimian would be better to run our current offense. I think Taysom is the superior football player, but I think Seimian is the better QB


You know who else believes this? Sean Payton. Seimian has been the second team QB all year. Why remove 2 positions (qb and Hill’s roles) when Winston goes down?
