The running game is no longer effective

the small passes are pretty much the same as a run game. there's no "end of the run game" or some stupid poo like that. the saints were more balanced this year than they've been in the past 3 years. if anything, it proves that you need an attack that's two-fold to have any kind of prolonged success.

thats like saying that passing is stupid because the panthers rushed for 5000 yards on the giants or something. whatever works, but you need both to have continual success throughout a season. against a defense that sucks, like the colts? who cares if you can throw it, throw it. it doesn't spell the end of the run game. it's doing what's the quickest/easiest way to victory.

    • I'm not religious. I don't care that he is. It has no impact on whether or not he will succeed as a head coach in the NFL. If he doesn't work out here so be it. I'm not wasting keystrokes going off on tangents about his personal life. If I were that deeply invested to that point I wouldn't even be following sports at all. Clearly for whatever reason you do as the previous threads you have created eviscerating Dave Canales over that and his personal life would clearly indicate. But that's your prerogative.
    • The approach we took to build the WR room is one I will always be miffed by. I’ve never liked our draft choices and it always leaves me feeling uneasy (even back to LaFell/Gettis/Armanti). I loved Pearsall and Ladd, but those just aren’t types we target for some reason. RB wise - Just seeing what Bucky Irving has done this year with guys Canales’ built his offense around last year, is enough to really make the RB approach seem questionable.  If we were unsure about Chuba preseason, then we should’ve gotten a guy who could’ve played immediately. If we were confident in Chuba, then we should’ve targeted a Ray Davis, Irving, Tracy, Guerendo etc a bit later and reserve the R2 capital for a potential long term starter.  The reasoning doesn’t entirely check out even though I love Brooks as a prospect.  I dunno, just still feels off. Same taste I got with the Horn pick. Same with bringing back Hurney. Just a big old ick.
