^^ I see Reggie covered by LB'ers and sometimes even DE's all day.... often caught up with and tackled by said guys with ease. I rarely (or can't say I've ever) seen a CB leave his WR to jump on Reggie (do you?) or is this just recycled and exaggerated theory? If Pierre comes out of the backfield (or even hangs around in the flat), he's drawing the exact same coverage as would Reggie... I assure you. Which is, usually one LB'er.

As for Reggie's decoy accountability for our Powerhouse offense.... this means nothing when we've continued to be the NFL's leading when Bush was injured or only being used a half dozen plays per game. It's nice to think we really are taking advantage of him, really I mean that. With all the hope I held out for him, all the money and fanfare involved with him, it'd be nice, but it's merely a stretch from my view at this point.

See, it's kinda a double standard.... when Reggies on the field and something good happens, say something big in the passing game, almost by default people are attributing Reggie for fooling everybody or simply opening it up..... But, for the other 4/5ths of the big and similar plays that evolve while Bush is on the sideline.... people don't give the rest of the O the credit to just plain kick arse with him... Which, BTW, THEY CAN!

EDIT: Oh yeah, I meant to say too..... that as far as the accountability the D has when Reggie is put in.... if anything, I'd say it more henders our O because Reggie is very 1 dimensional. He can dart to the sideline on a handoff or he's making his way to the flat for for a screen (a huge majority of the time). So from a LB'ers point of view, you're facing that... and I'm sorry, but on the NFL level, they are not that dumb. So yeah, he is accounted for, but it comes down to that.

I feel it's the other way around. I think because our offense is so dammed talented at every skill position, and that every one is a threat with Brees gunning, that this spreads the field for Reggie to get his "gimmie" yards before they close in on him. If Reggie was on an average to struggling offense, that were pretty one dimensional.... leaving him the go to guy, he'd get eaten up all day. Reggie is lucky.
