(Notice him in the read-option as lethal as Lamar Jackson.)

Do yourself a favor and watch this video of all the things Taysom Hill can do. I think he's the only player in the league that excels in so many positions.

Wouldn't be surprised to see a good dose of him running the read option

I'd love to see that. He's white so we can easily see the ball and it takes the ball out of the hands of Drew Brees and Kamara.

Youtube'd the Saints this year and did some recon...
One thing I noticed about them is that the offense is no longer built for Brees to carry the load. You can plug in any competent QB like Teddy Bridgewater and win games. Sean Payton is an elite play designer whom I believe is a level above Kyle Shanahan (no offense!).
The general scheme of the Saints is similar to the 49ers and Ravens in the sense that they use a lot of mis-direction plays that keeps the defense on their toes during pre-snap. 11 on 11 football where the defense has to be very disciplined and fundamentally sound.
Furthermore, the key to their offense isn't even Alvin Kamara, but rather Taysom Hill. If you haven't paid any attention to the Saints, Taysom Hill is an elite swiss army knife. This guy is absolutely the main boss of this fight as he's often the primary for critical 3rd down/redzone situations. At the moment, he's an unsloved problem like Lamar Jackson. However I do think we have to speed on defense to contain him!
To the people here prediciting a "bounce back blowout" game for the Niners, be very careful because the Saints are a legit team. My gut tells me this will be another edge of your seat nail biter.
49ers 28
Saints 27
Like I said, if they want to build their game plan around Taysom Hill as the main weapon I'm ok with it.

Most of #49ers practice participants were the same as yesterday, but sack leader (10) Arik Armstead walked off the field early during calisthenics and did not return. https://t.co/B0HNaWDrtG

He's the main weapon on "certain situations". We still have to deal with Brees and Kamara. Sean Payton is practically playing chess with 2 queen pieces.
The match up for this game is really good.

Ominous sign? Arik Armstead, accompanied by #49ers training staff, walked off the field shortly before practice began. No word yet on his condition; we'll get an update on his condition later today.

The D seemed to be holding up better than the O this year...seems to have reversed as of late.
