Hmm... seeing how he caught 70 balls last year with basically the same receiving corps (minus Hakim) plus some rookies... I don't see why he's not going to catch 75 balls with Brees as his quarterback.

I think we will see a much more west coast offense run this year. Bush will be in our top three receivers this year, that will take balls away from everyone, except Bush of corse.

He's going to be a solid contributor... but lets not over-value him. After all, he is going to be a rookie who's probably not going to start. Haven't we been running a west coast type system the last 5 years? Umm.. yup.

Horn, Stallworth, Hilton, and then maybe Bush as our top receivers. I'll give Bush around 40 balls which is somewhat of what Hakim would have given us. If Stallworth can turn some of those dropped balls into catches this season, he'll surpass 75 easily. And with eliminating those retarded passes Brooks tends to throw... will also boost his numbers.

We were running a pseudo-West Coast Offense, in my opinion. We didn't have the quarterback for it and the team's misques were so bad that our offense never really got started. We had so many 3-and-outs that it was hard for me to determine what 'system' we were actually using.

hey NM, just throwing a line out to ya on this thread. set the hook and reel!
