Re: Least Creative Saints plan since Bum Phillips
You missed my point that teams completely figured out our use of Sproles. It doesn't matter if it's Ingram or Spiller... Teams have figured us out. Sean Payton has become one of the most predictable play callers in the league.

Re: Least Creative Saints plan since Bum Phillips
I agree on the predictable play calling, but in no way is a Spiller or Sproles coming out the same as Ingram. If Spiller played we would have 2 TDs from him against AZ; one when Ingram never looked for the ball and was wide open on the wheel route and the other on the wheel route he caught but was tackled at the 15, Spiller takes that to the house.
