Speaking of the run game....

A good first step would to actually hand them the ball.

I agree. we need to make teams remember again that we have a running offense

Nothing personal RailBoss.

I had 666 posts and had to get the VooDoo off me.

I also recognise the danger of Div games. Unfortunately, we only have those games remaining. TB, Car.

I think we will have a repeat performance of the game played on 11 Nov!

Go Saints!

I just hope that Bushrod reads this forum. After the way everyone let loose on him all week, that would put a fire up his thunder shoot.

In fact, I think the entire offensive line has alot to prove today. They gave up alot of sacks, last week.

Give the rbs, the ball, early, and often, and we win this game big time. Get down by 2 tds, start passing every down, and they are going to blitz non stop all day.

if we dont try to run it, then the defense knows exactly what we are doing and its going to feed into their strengths

if we establish the run and continue to pound the ball then we will coast to an easy victory and clinched homefield advantage

the bottom line with the run game is that if you only run the ball 11 times you cant establish the run.....that was the clear cut case against dallas and that is the biggest reason why we lost IMO

our defense feeds off turnovers and we get turnovers at all against the cowboys.....rather than try and keep up with drew....they just tried to prevent drew all together......and it worked......nothing long except that first TD......they nickel and dimed us all the way down the field and never hurried back to the line to get a quick snap......

we either blitzed the house or didnt blitz anyone and the cowboys guess right almost every time.....its obvious that max protect is too much for our blitzing defense and we cant continue to do that.....GW needs to start mixing it up more......blitz 5 or 6 at a time instead of 8 or 0 at a time
