I don't know if you guys really pay attention to the game at all but the Saints passing game is all timing and Bree's precision. Everyone is on the same page when the play is for the ball to be at a certain spot at a certain time. Brees gets that ball released to a spot and the WR hasn't even looked back for the ball they sometimes just start putting there hands up or jumping because they know where the ball is going to be. You can't defend that, has nothing to do with an effective running game. An effective running game is to keep take time off the clock. Look what Bees did last year with no running game.
The ONLY difference this year is that we have a D and our running game is slightly improved with Bush at 3rd string (LMAO).

You realize that all 4 of Brees' TDs were off the play action, right? I'd say it's doing a little more than killing the clock. Hell, the run game bailed us out in two games this season.

But the real question is, if reggie is as bad as you say, who would trade for him and what would they give up?

You can make arguments over how much Reggie makes, his under-achieving vs. his draft rank, and his turnovers, but the fact remains that he's another arrow in Payton's quiver to strike at the opposition. I'm just happy that coach has finally put away the cute dipsy doodle plays featuring flips and laterals to Reggie that never seemed to produce anything but fan tension and turnovers!

What I'd like to see is the RB coach getting with Tiki Barber and getting our guys to use his hold technique. If you remember, the knock on Tiki was his fumblitis. He worked on his handle, and became lethal in the last years of his career. If its as simple as re-learning how to carry so the ball doesn't pop free, why not?

Thats just down right bad business! When we have to deal with cap issues he isn't making this any easier for his cause.

I don't know if I would take anyone for him but I would take draft 'picks'. we have a history of doing well with later round draft picks. We could use some special teams help the ways its going.

Also doesn't make much sense to have a Number 2 overall pick sitting 3rd string anything. I mean come on really?

I'll say this in caps so its clear "I HOPE HE TURNS IT AROUND I HOPE HE WINS GAMES FOR US". Right now it doesn't make much sense business wise.

If anything I think the pats would get him. Bill belichick has this way of finding good players and beleive me that guy will make Reggie a star. Just my idea what do you think?
