We've tried to rely on the ole "we will just outscore them" approach for too long. Brees is past that point in his career and he doesn't have enough help on the offensive line to make up for it.
willie snead is not the reason for the offensive woes. Oline is, which you were torn to shreds for being concerned about the depth...

No, Snead alone is not the issue with the offense. But, add to Snead the missing starting left and right tackles and that might have something to do with the inability to convert on those 3rd downs.

Right?

i don't know you said "Armistead who" when discussing Ryan Ram...so can't be that. Plus you said we were better off for losing Armistead since it would cause more cohesion. Guess you were wrong, again. Told you then that losing starters is a bad thing."

You know I never said that losing a starter isn't a bad thing. That is foolish. What I said was if something bad happens you have to look at what positives can be gained from it. Ramczyk is gaining very valuable experience. Not under the most ideal of situations, but valuable none the less.

No, I don't have to look for the positive because I don't have any control over the team or who plays. Told you losing nick and armistead were going to hurt because starters are starters for a reason. Told you boss.Now you are seeing I was right

I never said it wouldn't hurt. I said it will give the newer players valuable playing time. Why can't you understand that? It is called making a positive out of a negative. At no point have I ever said losing Armstead or Fairley or any other player is a good thing.
