4-0

Very obvious we can't run the ball ... Sad we had to keep throwing Drew was turning down TDs because we didn't want to run the score up ... But that's the only way we move the ball

Great win before hitting the road trip we are about to go on. I think we can take Chi at home but am a little worried.

We still have no running game. Our OLine cannot get push and KR didn't get much yardage early in the game.

Still, who cares? If we intend to screen pass the hell out if teams then so be it. Go with what works I say.

Every team has their weakness and ours is running. I have faith though that it can improve..pulling a guard, stills on a reverse. More movement in the backfield. It's too one dimensional. Wherever Brees hands it off that's where it's going. Gotta fix it.

If stupid Houston had held on against the Seahawks I would feel better, even though we are #1 based on tiebreakers as of now.

It would be a first to roll into the playoffs with no run game. Don't think I have ever seen it but I would not be surprised. With the right players it can be done and we have those players. I think teams were daring Brees to beat them but he's actually getting better and more accurate. I could see Chicago going the opposite direction hoping Robinson fumbles and abandoning the run defense.

Someone tonite said that our short passing game (especially to Sproles out the backfield) IS our run game. Works for me.

If someone told me at the start of the season our defense, after 4 games, would have 14 sacks, 7 INT and 6 FF, i would have said pass the dutchie.
