The Times-Picayune reports Saints HC Jim Haslett attributed RB Deuce McAllister's rushing woes to a combination of factors, including Seattle's early lead, less than authoritative running by McAllister and inconsistent blocking, in particular by Williams. The coach said it's too early to abandon the two-tight end, one-back set as the primary offensive personnel package. Still, the problems were concerning enough that McAllister spoke to coaches Monday about the attack's inefficiency. The result: a plan to use FB Mike Karney on more early downs and implement more of the power plays that have been the staple of the rushing attack in recent years. "We're going to go back to what we do best," Haslett said.
