PT and Bell
 

PT: Man he had some awesome runs last night. That first touchdown was incredible. He shed a tackle and then had a stiff arm swipe on the other guy. He has some awesome speed as well, after he shed that last tackle , he turned on the boosters to fly into the endzone.

Bell: What more can we say about this guys. He runs like a freakin locomotive train every time he touches the ball. I just love how he lowers the boom on whoever gets in his way.


All in all we have an incredible running game. I thought Sean called a very balanced game and when we do that we are unstopable.

Re: PT and Bell
 

Yeah they both looked good. Each had a fumble though. Gotta clean that mess up.

Re: PT and Bell
 

They are a great one two punch. I love watching them play.

Re: PT and Bell
 

Yeah. Both of those guys run hard and give nice efforts to pick up extra yardage after contact. I think that smashmouth style is even wearing off on Reggie....I saw him trying to lower his helmet and run over folks last night.

Re: PT and Bell
 

Dude!!! I forgot, Reggie did run somebody over last night. He caught a ball in the flats and steam rolled a CB.

Re: PT and Bell
 

That was Very good to see!!
One of my biggest gripes about the guy has been that he almost always seems afraid of contact. He looked pretty good last night, I have to admit.

Re: PT and Bell
 

thomas was a beast. i jumped and shouted when i saw that touchdown...
bell.. well he is such a great runner i mean he runs with passion damn thats amazing...

Re: PT and Bell
 

Exactly. We all know what Reggie can do in space, and all that dancing around does make people miss. There are even times where flying over people from 6 yards out for a TD is the way to go. But sometimes the difference between him and a first down is just lowering the helmet and runnin em over. It was nice to see that from him last night

Re: PT and Bell
 

Great effort by all 3. And give props to ol. They did a great job as well. PT's TD run sure was sweet to watch.

Re: PT and Bell
 

We're on pace for about 2200 yards rushing this year. Not bad!

Re: PT and Bell
 

Our running game, obviously along with our defense, is what has us at 7-0. They would have had a pretty much perfect night last night were it not for the fumblerooskies. Gotta knock that crap off and we'll steamroll people.

Re: PT and Bell
 

I love this combination! You have the brute force of Bell, and the finesse of PT. They compliment each other extremely well.

Here is my only gripe about them. I have them both on my fantasy football team. When I start one over the other, the benched player gets the majority of the points. Had I started PT last night, I would have won in both of my leagues. lol

Re: PT and Bell
 

Thomas has a gift of even when he's tackled, it's not a direct, bone crushing blow. I wish he would pass some of that ability on to Bell. Sooner or later, Bell isn't going to get up. LOL.

Re: PT and Bell
 

Payton is getting the most out of Bell and PT by splitting playing time and Bush is running a little aggressively himself.

Re: PT and Bell
 

what was this "who gets to be the starter" crap earlier this year. 50/50 baby. team all the way

Re: PT and Bell
 

The "starter" should be determined strategically, not as a reward.

I kind of like starting Pierre, and letting Bell come in mid 3rd quarter when the defense is tired. Bell has a quick lateral step that leaves tired defenders grasping air. But,,, Pierre breaks arm tackles, so he's good against a tired defense too.

Re: PT and Bell
 

the starter is almost always the better player and almost always gets more touches.....they are expected to get the most yardage and get the clutch yardage

when people look at the saints team you cant honestly pick out a better running back between bell, PT, and bush

there is really no right or wrong answer so the idea of a "starter" is meaningless

this is the same type of thing people were saying about "every down backs"......we are changing the definition of starter just like we changed the idea of an every down back

Re: PT and Bell
 

Or you can be like me and start them both lol
I got 19 from PT but only 2 from Bell. It was enough to squeak out a win though.
