Well I guess the beerman comes back after the bye

Here is what Payton had to say about the subject!

"I don't think the issue on kickoff returns is the returners as it is the guys blocking for the returners," Payton said. "I like Stecker back there, I like Terrance Copper back there. So (Bush) probably is not an option back there on kickoff return. I think we need to a better job of landmarks, setting a wall for the wedge and getting hats on hats."

I think I'd rather see Reggie back on kickoffs than punts. There's a better chance to break a long KO return than a punt return.

The only problem with bringing him back is who goes to make room for him on the roster?

Let the Beerman keep driving his truck. I agree with Payton, our blocking has not been that great on returns. Enough of this sentimental stuff, the Beerman was staright junk the last 3 years. He ain't getting any better, this isn't Madden where a guy can go to the pro bowl at 40. I hope that dude never puts on a Saints uni again. Waste of a roster spot.

You know, our Special Teams blocking hasn't been up to par for the past 3-years, Whodi. Maybe he is falling out of his prime, but our team couldn't block either.

There were times where they did block and the Beerman just skittered out of bounds instead of trying to make ANYONE miss. Like he was scared to take a hit, playing football. Uh uh. To be on special teams you have to be fearless, after his firstyear, Beerman wasn't.

I'll concede that point to you. Apparently, that's why Gleason is the Special Teams demon that he is.
