injuries killed us of course......but the games throughout the season you can tell....games where teams could run, we struggled......the miami game, the washington game, even the rams that were pretty terrible as evidenced by their first pick in the draft

any team that could run the ball could've beaten us and should've beaten us except for flukes like a missed field goal in the redskins game etc

we cannot win like that because teams know how to attack us now from the kickoff til the end of the game.....we will not win if we do not stop the run

I agree (all teams) not just the saints need to stop the run to win, if they don't stop our run, we'll win.. but i stand by what i said earlier, i believe Sean Payton went back on his word and backed out of that "we''re gearing for a perfect season, talk..
His main concern came when we lost 8 + starters and it got worse as we continued, somehow squeaking wins with our backups..
I think we'll win if we remain Healthy, our "Healthy" starters will take care of the run if they are indeed healthy enough to do so..
