Sean and company have to do something with the playbook it really needs a few new wrinkles. The Screen, Run, Go Deep or The Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy play calling is getting pretty predictable. I don't think there has been any changes to it since Payton and Drew have been here I'm not saying we need to scrap the playbook but how about adding to it with some new plays .I don't know but for all the credit Sean has gotten for being a offensive Guru it seems like the same thing year after year. I'd like to see alitte more big boy ball smash mouth if you will. we are going to be playing these really physical teams in the playoffs assuming we get back there and I fully expect that to be the case I'm just not so sold of the finesse type team is the way to beat the bully on the block . Dad always said the way to stop the bully from picking on ya is to Punch'em in the mouth and that's exactly what I want this team to do to the Seattle's and San Fran's of the NFC.

What's your take on this subject?

Being Sean is a former QB himself and Brees has been our best offensive weapon since '06; I don't see Payton getting away from his vertical offense. Smash Mouth football is what you play when you have a game manager as a QB; Alex Smith for example.

We are what we are until Payton or Drew retires, that's the way I see it.

For starters I'm not ready to question Sean Payton...



Actually that's all I have to say.

I'm not trying to start any big dust up or saying I'm unhappy with the coach or team.I'm just trying to have a discussion on something different that we talk about all the time like whats our record gonna be, who we want to sign, poll this or that,Etc

No dust up caused.... It's not as if we haven't ever talked about it.... But for me it will always come back to the same equation... Personnel. Shawn likes the offensive game plans he is putting together, and all these trips to the playoffs under his watch give him no pressure to change it....

Im >>>>>assuming <<<< (there's that word again, it means more than likely im wrong) you are saying you want Shawn to be more smashmouth with the play calling. You can't change to a smash mouth team if you pass on a Center, OT..... and a running back who will help you do that. All he did was change out the OW..... again and it's back to business as usual. See you in the playoffs...

You shouldn't throw stones if you live in a glass house, and if have a glass jaw you should watch your mouth..... cause I'll break your face!!! -50 cent

Cooks will open up lots of new plays. With him having the abilty to make a LB miss and go 60 yards, Stills and Morgan over the top and Graham/Colston a miss match every play im hopeful the offense gets that spark thats been missing the past two years. The run game will be important and if they can play as they did in the playoffs then we look in good shape.

Mr.Riaton

Besides more commitment to the run game, I would like to see more deep throws. We may raise the risk of getting picked,but I think it will help back the defense off our nutz a little. Of course that all depends on how much time Drew gets,but I think if we can do that,combined with the run game,we shouldn't have to change the play book too much. Whats the point of getting all that wr speed if you dont use it.I wouldn't mind seeing some trick plays a little more to keep the other teams guessing(fake punts,double reverse,flea flicker,wild cat,etc).

i do not see the play book changing all that much really. offensively we swapped on piece for another and added nothing else.

just look for more passes to the slot than last year which was a down year for the position.
