How bout PT's fumble yesterday and a helmetless Drew Brees that had to dive in a recover the ball for us. No one mentions that. Everyone just wants to bash Bush because he's an easy target. No one looks at all the great runs and blitz pick up's he had yesterday. I'm not gonna flame you, just say that you and all of the Bush haters have your mind so made up on him, that you wont pour out any other criticism where it needs to be. I dont think we should bench Bush nor ever think about it. I guess he is our new punching bag since Jason David got cut.

Wow, you two sound a little like Dierdorf and the Jets. Compare the stats. What if we didn't have a pounder for our running back? I think we all saw how that went. But hey, everyone is entitled to their opinion, just don't expect some to drink the kool-aid.

One of the quirks of fandom is the need for a "designated goat."

We've always had one. Dave Waymer in the 80's. We were "SB bound, if we'd just get rid of that damn Dave Waymer."

I think Toi Cook was it in the late 80's
... all the way up to Freddy Thomas--- We were "SB bound, if we'd just get rid of that damn Fred Thomas."

... Jason David.

I've seen much, and I dont need to flame anyone. Too happy. and tired.
and anyway, this board is for fun.

Maybe Reggie isnt going to do anything anymore. Maybe he's still a bit hurt
and isnt saying anything. I think we have the luxury with this team to play
the lotto with him, and take a chance that he will bust loose, and then, watch out! He still looks like he's ready to erupt any moment to me, and I'm rooting for him.

We've given up on guys in the past too early, who came back and punked us.

Learn from the past, young grasshopper

Wrong, it is a joke

2009 stats...
Reggie fumbles every 16 touches (3 fumbles)
Pierre fumbles every 38 touches (1 fumble)

For their ENTIRE career...
Reggie fumbles every 46 carries
Pierre fumbles every 167 carries

Worst use of "Best.Post.Ever" ever. No joke.

most funny use of silly superlatives.

ever in the whole great wide world. (we're sounding a bit SR'ish today, guys)

and I am joking.

No one mentions PT's fumble because
a) that was PT's first fumble this season
b) PT's performance in both the Buffalo and Jets games.
c) PT is an undrafted free agent who won the staring RB job.
d) people give much more credit to a RB who pounds the ball and needs 2-3 guys to bring him down vs a RB who fumbles when a stiff wind blows near him.

I have given Reggie much slack because what he meant for the team and the city when he was drafted, and because,time to time, you get to see a flash of brilliance that leaves you in awe. But now he has reached Devery-status with me.

PT, on the other hand, has reached "poor man's Emmitt Smith" status with me.

I'm not going to root for Reggie to screw up, but I surely want to see PT and Bell carry the ball, and Lance just call for fair catches on punts...
