Run The F**king Ball, Sean!
Why are we throwing the ball with that much clock left???...to a Tight End with two turnovers in the previous four games and a likely concussion last week no less???
RuAtt - 15; PaAtt - 35; less than a 1:2 Run to Pass - It's not rocket science... But just because you're not tearing off an Ingram 75 RuYd, or you don't have Kamara leaping defenders in a single bound doesn't mean the running game isn't helping... Once again - Sean, being Sean - Outsmarting everyone, including himself... Run the F**king Ball, Sean...Run the F**king Ball... Great Defensive Effort, absolutely wasted... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

We don’t know that Mark was even capable of it at that point after the big hit he took.

At least we could have run the ball and ate more clock, giving our defense more time to recover...they were just gassed... Payton can always move the ball, but even now, I'm still seeing the flaws in his game management return again... |

Re: Run The F**king Ball, Sean!
The playcall was just stupid.
We could have called almost anything except to force it into the second string tight end. And Hill has sucked. I agree, MI was probably hurt or had the wind knocked out of him. I would have rather them call a roll out Brees throw to the endzone and throw out of bounds if nothing is there. But to call a pass into double coverage over the middle is practically suicide. |

Ingram was hurt you guys... he was questionable before the game with toe issues, gameplan was likely heavily on Kamara. Ingram got even more banged up during the game. I don’t blame the calls on the last drive... that was all brees.

And it was more than just the last drive, it was that entire second half... This Atlanta coach knows Payton and he now owns Payton... The fact that four defenders were around Josh Hill is evident of my point... |
