Through 10 games the only consistent thing about the New Orleans Saints’ implementation of Taysom Hill was that it was inconsistent. But that changed against the L.A. Rams. Taysom was used early and often and in a variety of ways, and that was the plan all along. But can the good times continue? Jeff and Steve dive into how it all worked in Week 10, plus interviews with head coach Dennis Allen, Dalton and Taysom.

Someone created a petition for the New Orleans Saints to fire Dennis Allen and it has more than 4,000 signatures.

Steve and Jeff share their takeaways, plus an aside on why they still root for out-of-town teams (hint: there’s alcohol involved)
