Here is one question that I have been asking myself for a few years now... I have heard Haslet say time and time again that we need to run duece more. Since the 80's the Saints have been completely predictable. The way I see it, this game in the NFL, is about being unpredictable--on offense and defense. When your opponent is not quite sure whether you will run or pass on the majority of downs it leaves doubt in thier hearts. In the NFL a few seconds equals a huge play and/or touchdown. Like I said, this is not limited to the offensive production. On defense, you also need to become unpredictable to where the team doesn't if and when your blitz is coming, ala Jim Morra's great defensive team of the late 80's/early 90's. Bottom line is that I believe we have a pretty good team--I will never say we have a good team, nor will the media or the rest of the nation, until they prove it in the win column. Keeping to the same subject matter, how many times have you heard "other" coaches say we will take what they will give us? Well you know if they are consistently stacking the line with an eight man front I do believe the answer is not running it three straight downs, ala Mike Ditka. Ok, enough venting...what's your take?
