Beating the Carolina Panthers and Seattle Seahawks -- the Saints' next two opponents

We have got to establish a running game and take the pressure off of Brees. He needs time to plant his feet and deliver some strikes. Now is the time for Reggie to step up. He doesn't have to do it all - Karney, Stecker, and Thomas will also have to play an important roll. Our head coach/offensive genius will also have to bring it - by putting people in positions to contribute. It's been tough for Reggie to turn corners in the NFL...he has been getting strung out. Leading Reggie form the "I" with Karney gives the offense options and gives Reggie a chance to break a few. If he can hit the holes and get through into the secondary (off guard or tackle) he can do major damage with cut back moves. Karney would be the extra protection that Brees needs. Blitzers will have to take a lick trying to get to our QB. He (Karney) also has good hands out of the back field and has a good carry average. A little success can go a long way. I am hoping that small successes get contagious. If the offense can start moving the ball, MAYBE the defense might catch on fire. There seems to be no passion or fire on the D-side. Playing bad is one thing, but there is no excuse for not hitting. Opposing teams ought to need whirlpools when its over - especially if they've won on the scoreboard. The little things are what we need to begin to right this ship.
