It certainly wasn't just Copper.
Yesterday's game was simple: The Saints gave up 14 points on turnovers and 14 points by allowing Willie Parker to run wild.
Stop the run. Don't turn the ball over. Win the game. Simple.
As I said it certainly wasn't just Copper. The question I'd be asking is who was supposed to have outside contain in the run game. On Parker's last run it looked like McKenzie was crashing inside.
There's are still some good sides to a bad loss. We didn't lose ground to the Falcons. We came back from a 14 point 1st quarter deficit. Our offense is absolute awesome. Colston is clearly a stud.
We hold on to the ball, we win this game. Plain and simple.
So let's hold on the ball from now on.
I absolutely loved hearing Payton mouth to Reggie on the sidelines after the fumble:
Coach in the superstar's grill. That's the way it's supposed to be.
