This one throw from Allen.

First off, props to Ellis for finding this.  I loved this throw during the game.  I have been cautiously optimistic about Allen. This was the first time since the Cardinals game I saw something special.  This is a big time throw.  

I’m not saying he is the next HOF. But I love this throw with pressure in his face, the timing, and the touch. On 3rd and 13.

 Well done young man.

He’s definitely shown a lot more than the typical captain checkdown backup that goes in and wins by just being a game manager(looking at you Teddy) and that throw is a perfect example.

He also has a really long way to go to prove he can be a long term starter.

I find myself going back and forth on like every other play on what I think we should do at QB.

I don't mean to be that guy, but when was the last time Cam made that throw? 2017?

I don't know, Cam's deep ball was pretty putrid in 2017 outside of that playoff game.  Even in 2018 before the Watt hit, when he was having that statistically great start, his deep ball looked very off.

I think you'd have to go back to 2016 pre shoulder injury to see Cam making those kind of throws... and damn that makes me sad.  Dude used to routinely make those throws and throw straight LASERS that distance.

Was his best throw. Made a couple really nice throws yesterday. His arm and ability to make all the NFL type throws has never been questioned.

I wish he could have that deep ball to Samuel back. I have no idea why everyone has such a tough time connecting with Samuel deep. He has an extra gear that if you just led him, he’d go get it

    • Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.
    • NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing. 
    • The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
