Another poster said it during the game thread, but the Saints took away Minshew's first read and he was shook and rattled the entire game. 

That might have been me.  I can't remember many plays where he was able to throw to his first read.  And the few times he did, the WR seemed to be blanketed.  It's one thing to gameplan to take away a guy's first read, it's another to actually do it.  It's almost like they knew the play and where we wanted to go practically every snap.  It's possible our playbook has been pared back as Minshew is still a rookie.  But if so and if defenses have begun to figure out our tendencies, OC and Minshew will need to head back to the drawing board.  

I'm still on the Minshew bandwagon as I dont think his first 5 games were a fluke.  But as defenses adjust to him, he'll need to adjust back.
