That's how many times the ball was handed off to Williams or Stewart tonight. Deangelo had 64 yards on 11 carries and Stewart had 3 carries for -1 yards so it's not like the ground game wasn't effective.

Last week Delhomme had 41 attempts vs. 25 total team rushing attempts. Deangelo had a nice 4.9 ypc and Stewart had an even better 7.2 ypc that game. I'm not even going to get into the Eagles game because that was a blowout from the start.

Everyone is so quick to blame Delhomme but the biggest fuckup is the person who lets Delhomme throw the ball 33 times vs. only 14 rushes.








This thread was inspired by a tough fantasy lose. I needed Deangelo to get 10 points.

shit, 11 carries is like 22 points right?

1 point per 10 yards rushing and he had 10 yards receiving

its tough to run the ball much when you are always playing from behind

Down 10-7 doesn't constitute "HOLY SHIT WE'RE GONNA FUCKING LOSE THROW IT THROW IT THROW IT"


However, as a Saints fan, I'm glad that 1) we no longer seem to do that shit and 2) you guys have picked up the slack in that department

except they arent playing from behind when they stop running...they have one good drive running the ball everygame. After that they just suddenly stop calling the plays

i forgot too btt this the other day

great things happen when you run the ball 47 times (and when you play the Bucs)

i can't wait til next year to see how far this team has fucked itself

- peppers

All because we wanted to hang on to Peppers another year

they didn't really want to, but no one would give up a first rounder for him

10/21/2009 1:16:44 AM

Delhomme with 33 attempts and 2 INTS

I thought they learned their lesson last week

10/25/2009 6:14:42 PM

i thought this was Delhomme's INT Total

10/25/2009 6:15:18 PM

Williams has been getting the ball plenty, but has been limping off after every run.

10/25/2009 6:15:34 PM

looks like the Jets gameplan from last week
