The Saints lost to a 7-9 team in the playoffs because our offense couldn't run the ball in the 2nd half and play clock to shrink the back end of the game, which was our ENTIRE offensive gameplan in 2009 when we won it all.



Tell that to the 51 yards rushing the Saints had in the Superbowl.

we also had 93 yards and a TD out of the backfield. It also takes the pass rush off of us

So, tell me more about how the Saints played from ahead in the 2nd half of the Super Bowl?

Oh, wait...You mean we had to throw our way back in it? You mean, we had to throw our modus operandi out of the window in order to come back and not only tie, but take the lead?

Thanks for playing the, "I didn't really think this through, but I'm way too attached to my opinion and my own interest in it to admit I don't know what I'm talking about." We've got some nice parting gifts for you.

I like the Ingram pick. IDGAF what anyone else thinks about it, I like what the Saints did in round 1. We got great value for great guys, period.

I'm not going to claim he's taking us to the superbowl, but he's going to be a stud and we got him at a great value. The only thing I can't figure out is who is going to be our RB lineup. PT, Ingram has to be those two. Is SP planning a 4 rb active roster? I can't see Reggie being cut unless he will not accept low enough pay, then I guess it'd be PT, Ingram, and Ivory.. but none of them have great breakaway speed.

Ivory - 4.47
PT - 4.65
Ingram - 4.58

The fastest is Ivory and he's proven that he can break away but he's not a burner. Who would be our 3DRB? Ivory can't catch, not him. Would PT or Ingram be our primary back? PT is proven but fragile, Ingram is unproven but has great promise..

Gaah I DON'T KNOW!
