Saints defense steals the show in Taysom Hill's solid first start

There wasn’t much to complain about from the New Orleans Saints’ Week 11 win over the Atlanta Falcons, with the Saints defense dominating the afternoon and Taysom Hill looking the part of a starting quarterback in the 24-9 victory.

Hill held his own, and showed some of the qualities that have made the Saints believe in him — he threw with plenty of zip, climbed the pocket with clean footwork, and didn’t shrink under pressure. He finished the day after completing 18 of 23 pass attempts for 233 yards, taking 3 sacks while running 10 times for 51 rushing yards and a pair of touchdown runs.
