My guess is that Hill will end up being a poor man's Lamar Jackson as a qb.

So a Tim Tebow. That the NFL embraces instead of runs off

How about we give the guy his own chance first?

Insulting to Tebow

To everyone starting him (especially at the TE position) good luck!

honestly the thing that is most concerning here is the mid game hook.  because then you don't even get the benefit of the garbage time.  in the world of outcomes it is entirely possible that ATL is up big at half time and Hill gets pulled for Winston to mount a come back.  especially with the news of Lattimore out today.  if it was guaranteed Hill play the whole game i think he is an easy start, but the shadow of Winston looms large in this game

Absolute truth. But I think he would have to be playing HORRIBLY for that to happen. I can't see them installing a game plan that sets him up for failure. I see a heavy dose of read options, hand offs to Kamara, dump offs to Kamara, and a few shots downfield. No way they turn him loose to fire it all over. Saints have a decent defense so it SHOULDN'T get out of hand.

I personally just feel that any team regardless of QB that has Kamara which you can just hand off and do dump offs to isn't going to get blown out. Especially with that atrocious Falcons D. Plus Thomas was built for a small ball passer like Hill. He'll be slanting and a HUGE target. Can Hill hit him? We don't know. But god damn they've surely practiced those slant passes with HIll and Thomas over 1 million times in practice.

Probably getting some jitters out by being on the field?

I thought he looked much better as a passer than I was expecting.

Started at QB with allen on bye, more then even i expected. One of the top scoring QBs this week.

Definitely. He even stretched the field on throws. 

[bangarrang 183]

He actually didnt look bad throwing the ball. I did expect more running from him but the two red zone TDs are great. He did almost throw a pick on an early drive that was a bad decision but he really liked pretty good.

[Gandalfthecat 864]

I think the running will increase when teams actually have to respect the pass. Which the falcons did not do today 

[Fantasy Gooroo 1,434]

Also had a touchdown called back by a holding call. This was GAME 1. Can't wait to see what he can do with more practice reps. What an awesome gift. Looked very comfortable throwing the ball. Tebow 2.0!!! LMAO!!!!! 

 

The defense will see to it that they remain in the game. Tons of weapons surrounding him. Season saving potential for those with guys like Burrow, Wentz, Tannehill, and Lock.

He looked very comfortable today, better than anyone could have hoped. He went thru his progressions very well and was not a 1 read, drop eyes and look to run (ala Lamar). Very solid zip on the ball and NFL level accuracy. Only 1 week, against a poor defense...but there is plenty to like about his performance and the rushing ability makes him a fantasy option for most leagues.

guy is a beast. I started a TE but honestly even at qb he might be worth it. Rather have taysom than lamar. 2020 is crazy. 

[Jub Jub 285]

Happy to have him at QB this week with Allen on bye, but worried about Kamara now
