Saints' Jameis Winston: Throws five touchdowns
Winston completed 14 of 20 passes for 148 yards and five touchdowns while rushing six times for 37 yards during Sunday's 38-3 victory over Green Bay.
If one game is any indication, it seems like the Saints made the right choice in going with Winston over Taysom Hill at quarterback. While he certainly won't be throwing a touchdown every four passes going forward, Winston was mobile in the pocket and rarely made any of the overly aggressive decisions that seemed to be his trademark during his time in Tampa Bay. He also showed decent accuracy after never topping a 65 percent completion rate in any of his five seasons with the Bucs. As Hill's three touches largely put to bed any concerns of a full-blown quarterback-by-committee, Winston looks like a serviceable fantasy option on the road in Week 2 against Carolina.
