What happens to Reggie when Mike Bell returns? (3 Viewers)

I can't stress it enough : Bush breaks his leg tomorrow Pierre Thomas is the new Reggie Bush and his name doesn't get mentioned again for the whole year except "why the fk did we sign him long term?" or "we could have saved 50 million if we didn't sign this bum".

I guarantee that screen play where Thomas almost scored opened Payton's eyes. He doesn't even NEED Reggie. He can be a glorified punt returner (until he gets injured) then sit on the bench the rest of the game. I love the quote that I read here the other day "...and Reggie is now over 4 ypc" ~ It took him 1/4 of the season to get over 4 yards per carry.....pathetic. If Reggie couldn't catch the ball out of the backfield he would NEVER see the field, NEVER.

Pierre Thomas has over a 5.0 YPC in the last 150+ carries.

its not worth the trouble trying to say how bad bush is getting, he didnt get benched in sundays game because of the fumble he got benched because he let that punt go on the sidelines in the 3rd or early 4th quarter. he never returned to the game after he let that punt roll down to the twenty. maybe payton sees whats happening with him. at least last year and the year before he could return punts now he will not even catch them. i do not like him, never have, to much money for a scat back, but i do wish he scores every time he gets the ball because i do like the saints.
thank god bell will be back agianst the giants

You better be worried. He isn't touching the ball much that game. Remember Thomas after a month saw 1 play his first game back. In addition Bell has very little stamina, he will be lucky to carry the ball 5-7 times.

It will be the Thomas show. 16-22 carries and 125 yards.

bottom line
1. Bush gets paid to much for his production
2. Turnovers lose games and turnovers is the one thing reggie had been consistant at
3. We could use the cap space bush takes up to resign shaper among others, next season
4. There is always another "Bush" we could pick up in the draft
5. He does have some good plays but they are vastly overshadowed by his bad ones
