Re: We need to go after a big receiver in Free Agency
We don't do that. When have we ever signed established veteran WR's? Payton believes in developing his own.

I pray that I finally have a life because this will be the offseason where I will be in "I will believe it when I see it" mode. I can no longer be about football during the offseason. I will always be a fan but my spirit is broken. |

The answer is protecting Drew better; he can make a somebody out of a nobody with a clean pocket to throw from... Or Willie Snead until his injury, Benjamin Watson is having his best receiving season ever... |

I think you need veterans for the offensive line. It takes a few years to develop a rookie lineman and that is something Drew doesnt have.

FYI-Brees looked better in the second half because they weren't running the ball, more oortunities for catches. To say we could not do that in the first half is not right. You can blame run blocking, but Ingram's run well on second down. Now that he's done, we'll see what Drew does with no Ingram to run the ball on first down. |
