Article: Saints put too much on Brees

The only thing I agree with here is about the running game. We had four (FOUR) top-tier running backs this year. I realize we came in with Ingram already down, and then we lost PT (who is so under-rated it is ridiculous). That still leaves us with Ivory (one of the hardest runners in the league) and Sproles (small and elusive, for a change of pace), but how many times did we even TRY to run the ball?

Drew won the game for us TWICE but maybe, just maybe, if we try to run the ball a few more times, we control more of the clock and we don't have time to get burned by Alex. Effing. Smith.

God, that is still so depressing...
