I'd say more so just 21st century football. I'm not sure Faulk would have had near the success he had if he'd played in the 60's and 70's.

He is certainly one of the top RB's in the modern era, without question.

The good thing is the Saints dont need Bush to be successful.

We have the pieces to win without him.

I hope Bush understands this

Let the "I's" have it to carry most of the power work. Use Thomas on 3rd downs and screens. Mix in Bush motioning out of the backfield against LBs. Sounds wicked.

I'd say Faulk, similarly to Thurman Thomas, were elusive, shifty type backs with great receiving abilities. Emit, like Edrigan James and Deuce, was a great hit the hole, straight ahead power runner. All were great. This is just my opinion.

I said in a post a long time ago that I cannot be sure what is going to happen because I don't know what is going-on in Reggie's head. In this situation, you have to know that to be able to make a prediction.

If playing for a good team with a smart offensive-minded coach and a QB that can take the game plan off paper and put it on the field while using your services in a very effective but limited basis and at the same time giving your career more longevity is important...then I think he will land back in NO.

He is going to get offered more money from someone else, IMO.
