Chargers know how to contain Darren Sproles

The Chargers know the book on containing Darren Sproles.

They've had it read to them.

On Sunday night, San Diego will oppose the Saints running back for the first time since he left via free agency after the 2010 season. Sproles, a fourth-round draft pick in 2005, spent his first five seasons with the Chargers.

Sproles was 'contained' by playing for Norv Turner.

The real question is will our offense be creative enough to utilize Sproles more effectively

They contained him on their bench...

And Sproilesie is gonna remind them that you don't put Baby in a Corner...

"Knowing how to limit Sproles is one thing. Going out and executing is another"

You got that right at least

Love that little man!

Okay so you might be able to "contain" sproles but you won't completely stop him

Spend your time trying to stop sproles, it works wonders for us because then you free up - PT, colston, jimmy graham, devery Henderson, lance Moore and joe Morgan!

Equivalent to saying you know how to contain Drew Brees and Jimmy Graham.

errrr sweet... lets see you do it.

Just means they are focusing on 1 barrel of a 7 barrel shotgun.

Hopefully it's not loaded with Rock Salt

It's not enough to kill you; but you darn sure don't EVER want to be shot with it again!
