Saints QB Taysom Hill on going against Devin White and Bucs defense

You uh you’re obviously very familiar with his opponent do they have as as unique of a matchup as far as linebackers safety like you know guys that you go up against and and and David and um uh Devon white and Antoine Winfield I mean I don’t know if if I

Would describe it as as unique but um look I’ve got a lot of respect for those guys you know they’ve been really good players for a really long time and in the NFL Super productive and um you know as you mentioned we play them twice a

Year and so we see a lot of them you know and um you see those guys make a lot of plays so lot lot of respect for them and um you know we know it’ll be another battle come Sunday what is it about that M Mak those three just so

Effective yeah I mean I think there’s there’s an element of you know when you have a lot of experience in this league like you your anticipation of what’s to come and you know I think that those guys are this combination of you know being really smart and Savvy football

Players and then I look at you know their linebacker crew and uh you know what makes guys in this league unique and rare is their ability to cover you know ground lat laterally and and those two guys you know move as well as as anyone we see when you guys are looking

To establish a run how much of a problem in St white in the game yeah I mean he’s he’s a really physical player um and again he’s he’s a really Savvy player so I I think that with the scheme that they they run you know it it’s hard to be a

Really aggressive defense um if you don’t have guys that can control it all and uh th those guys do and so it presents a lot of problems you know for us in the Run game and um you know really anchored by those guys uh obviously game script affected the total

Touches in the last last game you were dealing with the injuries a couple weeks before are you kind of eager to ramp up the involvement hopefully of the game yeah yeah look I mean it’s one of those things that you know I’m ready ready when when your number gets called and uh

You never know how the game’s going to go but you know always ready is that is that a frustration of your role that I mean I guess it’s probably similar with any Runner running backs but you know when when a scoreboard gets to a certain point then then that is less involved in

The game plan I mean look I I it it it’s just one of those things that it doesn’t really do me any good or anyone any good you know so I understand that it’s there there’s situational football and you know given the circumstances and the way the game goes

And and everything else so I’ve learned through the years that you you control what you can control and and um you know make sure that when your opportunities do come that you take advantage of them and then just in general what is the mindset this week week obviously after a

Disheartening loss like that but you know no longer control your own destiny mathematically but how do you come into this week I mean look I I think that this is um one of the great Le lessons in life in in my opinion that you you control what you can control you know

And I look at you know we got we got a couple games left here and um regardless of the situation and circumstances you got to prepare um to win football game and you got to be be ready to play like that so I think that’s a mindset um every week

You know and you can’t let circumstances dictate how you prepare and and how you play the game Tason how are you doing at this point in the season I know you’ve been banged up throughout the year but are maybe some of those limited reps from last week because you’re still

Dealing with some no look I feel good I look it’s it’s week 17 you know um so you’re always dealing with things when you get to the end of the season but um I feel good thank you so much
