Saints QB Depth Chart -- Updated 11/19/2020... (1 Viewer)

The Depth Chart on the website says Drew / Taysom / Winston

 

[Mississippi Saints Fan]

But, but, but.... Sean told Taysom last year it would be him and Sean doesn't go back on his word. Lol

If I had to guess, Payton probably told Taysom something like it would be his job to lose and the competition would be ongoing. I actually think Taysom would have been our #2 this year if not for Winston becoming available.

I was just talking about some users in the other threads that kept saying Taysom would start because sean said that. I stated in one of those threads, that sean could have been blowing smoke up his arse to get him to resign and that he would likely go with a quarterback who has 5 years starting experience, is 6 years younger and could possibly be the future quarterback. I'm not a jameis fan but the only thing people on here say is he threw 30 picks and forget he is in a new system, better coach, sitting and learning behind a HOF quarterback, and took less money to do so. Give him a chance

I usually go by what's on the teams official site...

Edit: Found the rule:

DEPTH CHARTS – Every team must produce a credible weekly depth chart for the media beginning no later than the week of its first preseason game and updated weekly through the end of its season. The depth chart must include the 11 offensive positions and the 11 defensive positions a team considers to be in its base units, and it must list expected starters and backups at each of those positions. Listing players at each position on the depth chart in alphabetical order is prohibited.

Thanks for the rule Infoman.. I've got two links from sports news sources you might have heard of...

The Debbie Downers will not like this post! But it got me pumped. I'm ready. SP is going to let Winston loose! I'll be shocked if he doesn't have at least 200 yards passing.

Don't set those goals too high now.

The NFL requires team publish their official Depth Chart. This week, the Saints updated their official QB Depth Chart to the following:

QB1 - Drew Brees
QB2 - Jameis Winston
QB3 - Taysom Hill

I, for one, am Not Mad!!!

Sean Payton with young and fresh 5,109-yard arm... Lawd Have Mercy!! Focusing on getting Winston's arm strength integrated in Payton's Personnel Grouping... this will be Epic!! Payton can put DHarris on the outside and Winston can reach him 50 yards down the field. Payton can put 2-TE, Cook-Trautman, in a formation with RB41 or Murray and attack defenses with screens and seam routes all day. Unless you roll with the Black and Gold, This WILL NOT BE PRETTY!!!

During the record-setting yardage years, Drew Brees would take shots and engineer 1-minute drives. Back in those old days, the Saints DL would tire, DBs would struggle and the defense would give up tons of passing yardage. The yester-year Saints were an offensive juggernaut but the defense could not keep up. These Saints are different. This Saints team has a DL that is 8 studs deep. Let them eat!!

For those that know, like me, winning football includes controlling the Time Of Possession. I hear you. Winston can dink and dunk or take the shots down with field. In the last game, the 49ers had knocked Brees out of the game and were down one score. The 9ers coaches were probably feeling pretty good when Winston came in the game cold off the bench. But the wind went out of their sails when Winston extended the lead by 10 points.

In the Super Bowl Campaign, Brees fought off competing offenses with his deep shots and the defense had Darren Sharper. Sharper lead a defensive backfield that killed drives with interceptions and won the Super Bowl with a Pick6. Part of that group was Malcom Jenkins. Jenkins now leads a talented group of DBs who could gel at just the right time. Fans comment about the Winston turnovers but any fan of the NFC-South have seen starting QBs turn the ball over -- it's practically par for the course. In fact, I expect Matt Ryan to be a generous contributor to the Saints Turnover Total this weekend. It's Par For the Course!!

I digress... but Winston's arm and Jenkins DBs are exactly the way the Saints should attack the ATL Falcons. The Falcons have nothing to lose and a HC with something to prove. Winston has practiced against the Falcon defense with Morris was HC at Tampa. I believe Winston can out duel Ryan in his Mercedes Dome or ours.

Eat, Drink and Be Merry Sports Fans. The run for the NFC #1 Seed starts this weekend and you don't want to miss it!!

GO Saints!!

Potentially....if you can curb the wild throws or improvisation...

If Winston is under 200 yards passing its probably a good thing, it means we are running the ball well.

I want the same formula we've had all along this winning streak. Run the ball at least 30 times, short down and distance (lots of 3rd and shorts) and the D causing turnovers....

that is a winning formula, Jamies just has to make enough plays and be secure with the ball....we will see...

 

[David Robbins]

Its definitely going to be fun

 

[Saint Kamara]

Its definitely going to be fun

That's the hope.

 

[showstopper]

Defense always picks it up when #9 is out.

 

[Optimistic Ozzy]

That depth chart means nothing.

When did “the media’s depth chart” trump the OFFICIAL TEAM WEBSITE?

Fact or Fiction?

 

[jbob]

Doesn’t matter. Hill is starting Sunday

This whole notion of "they're gonna swerve the Falcons by bringing out Taysom" is pretty hilarious. As if the Falcons aren't actively planning to see him a good bit anyway??
