Halftime Stats

Halftime
Halftime Stats 2

Quick Analysis of the Saints 1st Half: 

1.  Bridgewater is not consistent.  Credit to Jags defense sacking and pressuring him.

2.  No running game.  Kamara and Murray are averaging 1.375 yards per rush.  Dismal.

3.  Saints defense is performing well, but not outstanding.   

4. No balance in Payton's playcalling.
