2. Taysom Hill has another touchdown run

Whenever opposing defenses see No. 7 walk onto the field, they know something is up. Yet, it is hard for them to stop quarterback Taysom Hill once he gets the ball for a carry. Just ask the Giants how that worked out.

The Saints were lined up eight yards outside the end zone on second-and-one. Hill took the direct snap and ran up the middle of the field. The quarterback bounced off Giants defenders like a pinball and powered his way into the end zone for an impressive touchdown.

That was the highlight of Hill’s day. He did have three passes on the day, but one of them was intercepted by Giants cornerback James Bradberry. That pick happened on the drive immediately after Hill’s run into the end zone.

Given what we stated in the Kamara prediction, Hill scoring a rushing touchdown in the red zone should be a virtual guarantee.
