Our Offense...

As close as we were to our own goal line at the end of the game I kinda wonder why we wouldn't run a QB sneak on first down. Its an easy way of getting 1-3 yards and just a little space to move, all Brees would have to do is basically just fall forward, it hits so much faster than a regular run play.

Possibly because of the risk of injury to Brees?

Yeah that might be it but at the same time its hard to get any really hard shots in on anybody when you're moving in such a small space. I'd get more dangerous if hed stumble trough the D-line and into the next level where LBs or safties might come flying down.
