Taysom Hill was the star for the Saints as New Orleans wiped the floor with the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.
Taysom Hill posted 138 yards and three touchdowns as the New Orleans Saints downed the visiting Cleveland Browns 35-14 on Sunday inside Caesars Superdome, spoiling the homecoming of Jameis Winston.
Hill recorded a 75-yard scoring run and two other touchdowns of 10- and 33-yards that more than made up for his two turnovers on an interception and lost fumble. He also moved into ninth place on the Saints' all-time touchdowns list with 44.
Saints quarterback Derek Carr threw for 248 yards and two scores as New Orleans improved to 4-7, including a 71-yard touchdown pass to receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling early in the game.
Winston tossed for 395 yards and two touchdowns as the Browns fell to 2-8 in his return to New Orleans, where he played the previous four seasons.
His favorite target was receiver Jerry Jeudy who finished with six catches for 142 yards including an 89-yard touchdown catch.
New Orleans rushed for 214 yards including 67 from running back Alvin Kamara on 16 carries. The Browns managed just 66 total yards on the ground headlined by Nick Chubb's 50 on 11 carries.
Cleveland tight end David Njoku caught nine balls for 81 yards while receiver Elijah Moore chipped in 66 yards on six catches and a circus touchdown catch in the corner of the end zone.
Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins didn't have his best day, going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts of 51 and 27 yards, both missing wide left.
Next up, the Browns host the Steelers on Thursday Night Football in four days in a short week for both teams.
