Good. Now admit you need to call short passing plays and script the 1st 2 drives. I really don't think we script the first quarter anymore.

Agreed....I don't think we need to run, run, pass....but 13 carries/attempts per game just will not cut it. I do think Sproles going down was huge though in regards to gameplan bc I thought we'd see more screens mixed in using his speed...

I just hope he doesn't force it to try and overcorrect himself. I always hope that we can get the running game going, but if we just can't it's just a wasted play

i'm sure he'll be calling more passing plays moving forward too.

I'm more worried that he's full of shite. He said that balance was an issue last season and we're currently averaging a whopping .7 more rushing attempts per game than we did in 2012.

Well our running game has been pretty bad. It's hard to correct it by just running into a wall repeatedly (looking at you ingram)

Saints are average 24 carries a game

Maybe after all these years he's realizing he has a guy named Pierre Thomas on his team and that he is a picture perfect back that averages 4.5 yards per carry over his career.
Then again maybe Ingram showed him something last week.

Does that mean more carries for Hill?

Cowboys will stack the box now. Drew might throw it 60 times on Sunday.

I think we should do more no huddle earlier in games, mixing in draws to get some running going.
