Designed runs for Taysom Hill... (1 Viewer)

[Ole Saint]

We didn't see quite as many designed runs for Hill as I expected, but #7 still managed 10 carries for 51 yards...the one running play that has seemed unstoppable is the play where Taysom is in an empty backfield and we bring the tight end in motion to serve as an extra blocker...when Taysom gets the snap he follows the tight end...from what I've seen that play works every single time...Taysom is, by far, the most physical running quarterback in the NFL...

What I find most interesting about that play is how rugby-like it is. It's a pure 11-on-11 play and so different from the offense Payton usually calls.

The fumbles though.
It lost us the Green Bay game.
It could’ve allowed Atlanta to get back into this game.
He’s got to fix that.

Completely agree...two weeks in a row he fumbled after a long run when we were just trying to ice the game...it's a problem...

He should pretend that the football is his newborn baby. Bet he would fix it after that

Payton said he wanted Taysom to establish himself as a pocket passer in the first half against Atlanta, and then he gradually opened up the run game for him to show he is truly a two dimensional QB. Taysom needs to work on ball security, though, like has been mentioned. He's got smaller hands than Drew, and that is his one liability.

only time it should be designed is on goal line or 3rd and less than 2. all his runs should now be from roll out passes or initial dropbacks, bc now that hes a threat to throw, the LB's and safeties are backpaddling, that should give him a good running start and he should always get atleast 5 yards when that happens..

Wow it never hit me that Taysom looks exactly like a Rugby player when he runs the ball. And he definitely has the same attitude of a rugby player welcoming the contact.

I love that play. It's just old school hat on a hat football. I always like when SP would bring in a third Tackle and everyone knows it's a run but they can't stop it. This play is like that. You know what's about to happen but you can't do anything about it.

Thank goodness that's really fixable.

According to Anita Marks, Taysom runs the naked bootleg.
