When you have to come from behind all the time it limits what you do...

Our SB run was a equal pass / run offense in fact I would argue we were a run team then.

I really think you have your tense incorrect.

Keep in mind that we have not seen a single snap involving the 2017 defense, nor do we even know who will make up the entire 2017 defense, so referencing the defense in the present tense is foolhardy. Also do not forget that four defensive coaches have been replaced since last season, including the LB coaching tandem that everyone saw as a major issue. The new LB coach, Mike Nolan, is arguably the best in the league at what he does.

Well at least we have the Vikings playbook for the season opener.

Dontbthink anyone is going to argue that though this offense has been good its not been 09 amd 11 levels of good for a few years. Ingram and Peterson can do this

We ran the ball them years. May have been a committee running but the ball was run well
2011

I'm told #Saints were always extremely upfront with Mark Ingram as they pursued Peterson. Lots of respect on all sides.

Did anyone catch Steve Smith's take on NFL Network

I never liked the guy when he played, but he speaks so highly of our organisation and he seems smart as they come.

When they kept asking about Mark Ingram, Steve Smith replied "Healthy Competition....any guy that backs down from a challenge like this, isn't built to play in the league."

I completely agree with his stand point and I'm ecstatic about this signing.
