Running game production prediction - WK 2

State Of Affairs said
I love how all you guys know how to game plan and what it takes to win this game better then the coach.

Last year, we played Green Bay, who had the number ONE passing defense in the league and we lit them up!!!! What makes you think we should take the ball out our best player's hands and goto what we don't do very well, that's run. Their middle LB is out, I bet Brees will use Bush to exploit that.

People, we are a passing team!! That's what we do!! we're not going to become a running team unless we change our personnel. All this talk about we're not going to do this or that unless we run.... BULL!! We're going to do our thing and a we're going to score points.

My only concern is Bushrod. Can he hold up against all the pressure and blitz packages?? That's the key to the game.

When did I say we need to become a running team? I was saying that we need to stick with the run more than we have the last 2 seasons, that's all.

And if their MLB's out, what the best way of attacking them? Run the ball! A MLB's main responsibility is to stop the run, and they tend to be less agile in coverage than OLB's, so I'd be very surprised if they planned on covering Bush with their MLB anyway.

Look, we're on the same side here and I'm just saying if we run the ball 45%ish of the time we'll be less predictable and better on offense all-round.
