Kansas City's game plan was to sell out completely on the run and force Brees to throw the ball in his first game back. Normally Brees would make a team pay bigtime for using that strategy, but if you remember he was clearly off early and didn't get into a rhythm until the second half.

You know the old saying, "dance with the one that brung ya'"? Going pass or run based upon the defensive alignment is what has made Payton/Brees' offenses the best in the NFL over the last decade and a half. Running the ball when the box is stacked over and over again will do nothing but produce 3 and outs.
Ok I'll play along

Saints 1st possession:
Kamara- 5 yds
Brees-incomplete pass
Brees-incomplete pass

Saints 2nd possession:
Brees-incomplete pass
Kamara-5 yds
Brees-interception

Saints 3rd possession:
Kamara-4 yds
Kamara-2 yds
Brees-incomplete
Punt
