Do yall think he will play this Sunday?

Im not sure the severity of his injury but he played a key role in our win last week against the Rams. I hope his injury is just minor.

He'll sit or only take a few snaps. It amazes me that no one anywhere is talking about the fact that he's the featured back for one half all year and he couldn't make it through that with out the knee swelling.

I think you have really start wondering about his career long term. And yes, I'm serious.

Think we will see him sparingly

I would bet that he sits this one out, but that's just a guess.

I'm going to guess he'll sit.

I don't expect 2 see him play this weekend either... If i was the coach, he would NOT even dress 4 this game... We need him healthy!!!

I saw alot of comment's about if
reggie will be gone next year or wutever, but u all know as much as i do that if we release him, wutever team he is on, he will shine & be great & the worste part about it is that whenever we play against him, that he will end killing us... Happen's with every player we get rid of. They shine else where & knock us off!!!!

I just wish Payton would envolve him more. He's constantly nagged on about being a bust, but the really the problem is that he dose'nt get enough touches... Let him get the ball 15-20 times a game & i promise u he would shine. He just is NOT giving the chance...

Look I want Reggie to shine just as much as everyone, but I think the discussion of whether he can/will play in New Orleans beyond this year is valid. He just happens to have his biggest payout coming next year and he hasn't been able to finish a season.

Is that worth $8 million to you?

Here's my previous post on the issue:

Said it before and I'll say it again: There's more to Reggie's knee than we are being told. He has a serious issue with a lack of cartilage, it's almost bone on bone now and his career will be short lived.

Agreed.

I would sit him this game so he can be healthy for the Patriots game. Reggie finally helps the team win this year and once again he is banged up. Loomis has a huge question to answer this offseasn: Do the Saints keep Reggie Bush?

Finally ESPN will get to compare Bush to Gale Sayers, not for ability but for the fact that both careers were cut short due to knee injuries.

Actually I'd sit everyone that is on the injury list this week so they can get more rest for the playoff run.

Here's your answer fellahs ...

Bush and Ellis don't make the trip!
