this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Who, Interesting post. Can I get some clarification on the \"utilizing Duece\"? Our run to pass distribution was like 46-54 per 100 plays. That means we ran almost 50% of the time. Of course, Duece was hurt for a couple ...

The Importance of Deuce
T-R,
I meant my claim to be general. Just to be clear then, your view isn\'t that Duece is under-utilized, but rather that he is mis-used? |

The Importance of Deuce
Thanks for the info, Who...interesting thread. Admittedly, I am biased toward Deuce, but I think he has performed admirably as a Saint. I\'m with you, Danno. I hope he can get back to the shape that we remember from the first couple of years. I can remember Jimmy Johnson stating back then that one of the things that made him so dangerous was his ability to break the big one on a regular basis. In his first year as a starter, it seems like he had about three very long runs called back for penalties, and a few more that counted.
We don\'t see a whole lot of that anymore, Hopefully this year he will return to that level, and we will see a lot more of that breakaway threat. Regardless, he is a very likeable guy, and seems to know the right things to say and do, which makes him a very refreshing change of pace in a league that seems to be heading more and more towards me first and the team second. |
Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!
