Snap Counts: Washington forces Saints to rely on passing-game personnel for first time in weeks

The New Orleans Saints haven't had to rely on their passing-game personnel much over the course of the past two months.

From a playing-time standpoint, that has meant that certain players, like tight end Coby Fleener, have played a little less than they had in recent years.

But the Redskins forced the Saints to play in catch-up mode, both in a two-minute drill at the end of the first half and most of the second half.

Forced to play a different kind of game, New Orleans turned to its pass-catching types more than it has in weeks.
