Stubborn coach Payton gives bush touches to the detriment of the team.

Saints & Devils said

At first I was getting a little mad, not seeing Ivory at all and seeing the ball go to Bush on what seemed like every offensive play for awhile...

Mostly this was due to the announcers talking about anything and everything that had to do with the damn Falcons and not sharing the fact that Ivory was hurt... Plus Bush was doing great, despite all his normal dance in place then fall down/go out of bounds, but it kept culminating in easy/short 3rd downs so no one can complain!

I can't really remember a play where Reggie could have kept running and ran out of bounds. He has really cut down on that over the last few years.

I can remember a stretch play to the right where he styed behind his blockers and waited and waited and waited and a hole never opened up and he finally just came around the right side of the blockers and picke up 3 yards and went out of bounds. But I credit that to the Rams for stringing out that play and not letting a hole open up.

The only frustrating play Reggie made yesterday was when he caught the quick screen on 3rd down and went to go up field and decided to break it outside. I don't really think he would have got the first if he would have went up field but that's what he should have done. Then again if Devery wouldn't have been standing and watching and got in the way and Reggie could have got outside who knows what could have happened.

He played a good game yesterday, not great, but he was solid. He continues to improve as a runner. And his prescence on the field is still never overlooked by the defense.
