i have to disagree about shockey and bush... while i love D. Thomas... i think he has played over his head this season and shockey really is drews safety valve... we rarely attacked the middle of the field on saturday except on crossing routes and we only used a 1 TE set when we do run a 2 TE set alot... more then u would expect from a wideopen offense... payton loves to run out of that set and both shockey and thomas are good run blockers... his outages really made a difference in the run game and even moreso in the passing game.. we hardly threw the ball deep but just a few times.. u can say it was b/c drew didnt have alot of time but i really believe it was b/c our WRs were covered deep.. this is where shockey comes in... his presence commands the safety to keep an eye on him in the middle and he is often (very often) double covered when drew hits meachem or devery deep.. go back n look at the replays on nfl.com and just watch our deep throws... shockey is almost always pulling a safety from the WR to give em single coverage...

and bush.. while he is either hated or loved by the whodat nation he really does make a difference on the field and u hear it from other teams players and coaches.. im not going to go into as much depth as i did for shockey b/c i dont really need to.. reggie might not be the greatest runner we have but he has been hitting the holes better and his YPA average is way better then what it was the last 4 years and his threat to take it to the house every time he touches it has an impact on defenses, especially when they like to blitz and we run the screen... which we didnt do much of against dallas like i thought we should have done to slow down the pass rush...
