The Run vs Pass?
It seems we're in for a year where the Saints have geared themselves to be a run dominant team. Deuce will be the go to guy and adding Smith was a nice pick up. This begs to ask the Question, which is this team best geared for? The run or the pass.
I know a lot will argue that the ball is in the QB's hands, so when you opt to be a run oriented team, you are taking that away from the QB and giving it to the Ball carrier, in this case Deuce. I know you need both to win, but what if we focused more on a run and gun offense like the Rams and just aired it out there letting our speedy receivers have a chance? Wouldn't we be better off? Are we still afraid of leaving the defense on the field, therefore by running the ball we keep the offense out longer? With A Pass oriented game we leave the game mostly in the hands of Brooks, Horn, and Stallworth. Running it we leave it with Deuce, Stecker, Smith and the O line. Which do you prefer? |
