Where's TheOak when you need him? We need some cold hard facts and stats up in here!!

I've seen some teams gouge them, I just don't have any stats on hand. I'll wait for TheOak to spruce this thread up.

Your best bet is likely Sproles - the two games where we gave up a lot of Rushing Yardage were against smaller backs and the plays were largely delays or up the middle runs where the smaller backs got lost among the big bodies and then burst into the open for a 10 yard or so gain.
Having said this, the 2 games this was a big issue were back to back and seem to have been resolved based on our most recent games.....I wouldn't count on being able to run much...I would look to use those backs, as Brees typically does, in play action - if we are susceptible anywhere it is short middle and when our LB's are in coverage.

Besides Lynch, they have Wilson that scrambles around. That's pretty much it. And they have very average receivers. They allow 115 ypg on defense (not really dominant as claimed). We should be able to move the ball on the ground. Our screen is like a running play anyway. If there is bad weather, it should advantage us as the DBs will not know where the route breaks are. And of course, there is no D for Grambeaux.
