Saints defense saw 41 rushes for 179 yards against them. Mahomes had a 5.3 yard per carry average, but once again, Ditka him and he’ll get banged up real quick.

Both are superstar athletes, but neither are bruisers. Extrapolating a 4.9 average or Mahome’s 5.3 average to double or triple the amount of touches will come with a cost.

Once again, defense can easily dictates offense.

Anyone that is so insistent about our not running the ball enough last game needs to go possession by possession, play by play and indicate in their opinion where the run was needed instead of the executed pass. Also take into consideration what the defense was showing on that play.

Let me know if you need the link to the plays. Easy to find.

I see a lot of "what they should have done" but we'd all love to see what you would have done.
