Way to step up and make a play. Facing third down 15 yards out from the end zone, in overtime, New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough threw one of the prettier touchdown passes you'll see to his tight end Juwan Johnson. It was exactly what the Saints needed to take the lead in extra minutes, giving themselves a shot at defending their home turf.

That it followed what had been a rough day for Shough was even more impressive. Shough was under heavy pressure throughout the afternoon, taking five sacks, and he had already experienced some misfires. He missed rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson wide open on a dig in the end zone on an earlier drive and mistimed a couple of throws to his star wideout Chris Olave at other points. This was a much-needed return to form.

Johnson needed it, too. He started the season hot but had gradually lost targets to other players in thee weeks leading into the bye, and even to this point in the game he had been quiet (outside of a tough catch-and-run early in regulation). He proved he was a weapon Shough could trust in clutch time, and someone deserving more touches in general. We'll see if the play caller learned the same lesson when the Saints compete with the Carolina Panthers next Sunday.
