Triplett says Saints Interest in Chris "Beanie" Wells is "Bona Fide"

Against the 30th, 26th, 25th, and 5th running defenses in the NFL, yardage wise. And the 30th, 26th, 28th, and 3rd running defenses in the NFL, YPC wise. And please do not act like PT had a good game against Chicago, he was horrible.

I'm not a PT naysayer, I like PT and think he is a good RB. He would excel if he was used like Bradshaw or Ward were last season with NY. But to think he can be the feature back of this team is dreamful, we have seen what happens when Payton uses him that way. He becomes injured. The only time Payton has ever made a commitment with PT is against sorry run defenses.

Like I said, I'm not a PT naysayer, I like him. But, I am not sold on him. He has done NOTHING against good NFL defenses. And IMHO, there is a reason for that. There is a reason he gets carries against the bad defenses, and not the good ones. There is a reason Payton voiced his displeasure with PT's performance early in the season and reduced his carries.

1) obviously PT would not be used as "feature back" for the Saints as long as Reggie is on the team. they will split carries

2) How many games has PT missed in his NFL career due to injury?



Actually you are a PT naysayer, because you arent showing him the respect that he has earned. Just like people hating on him for the Denver game. Sure it wasnt his best performance, but he only had 6 carries that game. And two of them went for touchdowns. And lets not forget how he dropped 100+ yards rushing in a huge divisional win over Atlanta when we were still in the playoff chase.
