Bradshaw worried about dropoff in our running game

CantonLegend said

our running game would keep our defense off the field

the passing game is the best way to get our defense right back on the field

the passing game is designed to score quick....that means our defense doesnt get to rest....our defense is required to make more stops because they are on the field more and our offense cant control the clock

If opposing defenses are trying to stuff the run, then you pass. Which is better, a long drive for 3 points or a quick drive for 7 points? Our defense right now can't get off the field when rested so that's a garbage excuse. Atlanta, Carolina, Tampa Bay, New England, Washington, and Atlanta have marched down the field and scored on the first drive of the game quite often the past few weeks. In that stretch, only St. Louis didn't.

Atlanta also has a horrible secondary so it makes sense to attack them with the pass, especially with Drew Brees.
