Saints - Browns

Total Yards:
208 - 114

Time Of Possession:
16:10 - 13:47

Rushing:
106 - 47

First Downs
11 - 9

The Saints are actually doing a good bit better than the Browns. It's been the Penalties, the Pick 6, and the refusal to run the ball that have killed the Saints the first half.

Essentially the Saints have spotted the Browns a 6 point lead, now we just have to go out and beat them down the next 30 minutes.

Oh and I forgot we had 1st and 5 inside the 10 yardline where Payton had a brain fart and tried throwing the ball twice when the Running game was doing so well.

Doesn't at all.

D is playing well outside of 1 frickstick.

We're dominating them on the ground and have an extra 2 offensive possessions due to a pick 6 and the last drive

Not surprising at all.

Short fields on Cleveland's first 3 drives.

A Pick 6 for 6 points.

What's so surprising?

The lack of dedication to the run is the most baffling thing I've seen in the Saints in a while.

I almost feel like every time Ingram runs for 6 yards, Payton gets livid, as if Ingram is insulting Payton and Brees by outdoing them.
It's almost like Payton HAS to prove that throwing it is even better than running.

Seems about right. Took the Saints -4 in the 2nd Half. I'm pretty confident we win this game. It just feels like one of those that we aren't going to lose. Too many self-inflicted, but very correctable mistakes so far.
