Because we didn't..
I wouldn't call 31 points stopping anyone. Josh Wilson, Carriker, and Orakpo were in the game against the Saints and they have nobody who is at the speed of Amendola in their WR core.
Yeah, we can coat it that Bree's had a suspect game and we limited his completions, etc. Our scheme against the Saints was almost identical to the one we ran against the Rams. A few more Man coverages, but that's because of one reason.......
Rams WR's are superior in speed to our DB's which the Saints are not. I would of preferred to see more of Crawford in the game vs the Rams because even though he is young and new to the defense. He has the quickest feet of all our secondary.
