Whether there's any truth to it or not, offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter says there's no plan to pass more against the struggling Saints defense.

As Scott Smith of Buccaneers.com reports, Koetter said that the approach remains the same in Week 14.

Now, there's obviously a good chance that this could just be Koetter's way of keeping his gameplan away from the opponent. On the other side, he may really stay focused on pounding it on the ground with Doug Martin and Charles Sims.

Regardless, it's hard to ignore the fact that New Orleans has allowed 35 passing touchdowns and 3,617 yards this season.
