Because the coaching staff called a sh**** game and our players didn't execute. We only ran the ball 10 times with Deuce against a mediocre front seven of the Colts. That's inexcusable in my opinion. Now, am I still going to be 100% behind this team? Absolutely, I just hope that they change their strategy, because when you have the best running back tandem in the league, you use them. You don't keep throwing it to, IMO, a questionable group of receivers.

Now I agree with that, I think the team gets into a dilemma and doesn't know whether to panic or not. I also think the Saints have a way of moving the ball all over the place but not scoring enough points. The games they do score they light the score-board up, then they are off their game.

I can see an argument for why the Offensive line broke down because for all that passing, Brees had zero time. I've never seen the o-line break down like that.

I wonder why the Saints didn't trade Deuce, in the offseason, since it looks like they want to pass alot more than run.

THIS WAS VERY WELL PUT!!!!! When you have the type or rushing attack we have we should have killed the Colts front seven and since we abandoned the run it let their defense look like all world.
