Looked to me like the Saints had LV off balance early and were absolutely bulldozing the Raiders on the ground only to abandon the run completely even when it was still a 1 possession game. I'll have to look at the play by play, but feel like even after Kamara was averaging north of 6 yards a carry after the 1st half, with Murray getting in some quality punches, AK didn't seem to take another handoff until the start of the 4th quarter, and then rarely thereafter.
I know the circumstances are evolving, but as great as Brees has been, it's not 2011. The Saints don't have to air it out like that. Just mind numbing, especially when your own defense was on its heels and were being subjected to methodical drives which left them completely gassed. This was terrible, non-complimentary football from Payton and Allen.
