If the issue is the X-CSRF token header you can modify the Backbone.sync like this to send a token with each POST, PUT, DELETE request.

        /* alias away the sync method */
        Backbone._sync = Backbone.sync;

        /* define a new sync method */
        Backbone.sync = function(method, model, options) {

            /* only need a token for non-get requests */
            if (method == 'create' || method == 'update' || method == 'delete') {
                // CSRF token value is in an embedded meta tag 
                var csrfToken = $("meta[name='csrf_token']").attr('content');

                options.beforeSend = function(xhr){
                    xhr.setRequestHeader('X-CSRFToken', csrfToken);
                };
            }

            /* proxy the call to the old sync method */
            return Backbone._sync(method, model, options);
        };
