So let me get this straight. We'd be a better team next week if we don't have Pierre. Maybe we should just sit him.





Right.

Exactly. I mean that I'd prefer the two fresher, younger backs play. I'd rather not see him in the game .

I couldn't sit him, bit I can't lie, the offense work smoother without him. Smaller playbook, but fresher legs.

An injured, fatigued Pierre, yes. I love the guy. He's the only player I have a jersey off, but he's been through the ringer. Having two fresh guys in the post-season is huge.

Right
Actually, I think it's true. Those screens were getting snuffed out, and Brees was still getting hit on those plays. You come with a determined power running attack, and you get to run play action to Graham and Stills.

Tonight's offensive gameplan, with a decent to good showing by Brees, and we can beat Seattle.

I'm also glad Payton and the offense were focused on that last drive... I thought Philly was gonna lay down and let us score with a minute to go.

It's not about PT so much as it is Payton's playcalling when he has PT. And yes, I think Ingram and Khiry are superior runners, though PT is obviously a better player in the receiving game and great in the open field. Something Ingram did tonight better than anyone has done all season: finding the holes in the trenches. He had SUPERB vision tonight.

ETA: And I remember a play early in the season where Ingram had several poor reads and ran into the back of the middle of the OL instead of making the right cut. He did everything right tonight.
