Re: Saints wide receiver Marques Colston says loss of Darren Sproles contributed to offensive struggles
I wonder what led to all the passes he dropped and the fumbles he committed?

For the right price I'd welcome Reggie back, he's an automatic upgrade on Cadet and could help draw coverages away from other players.

I think there are probably better options out there. |

Re: Saints wide receiver Marques Colston says loss of Darren Sproles contributed to offensive struggles
Yes, Sproles was factor. A factor of many factors.
There were mayn, many other factors. For resigning Reggie Bush, no. His best and better days are over. I liked him for all he did here and , perhaps, there would have been no SB win without him that year. HE was a BIG factor in that year and the years leading up to the SB year. He was part of just the right mx at just the right time. I like RBush. He was a pretty guy on and off the field. All the best to him. I hope he just retires. N.O.-Saints--MiamiDolphins---DetLions. Just retire. He had a great college football run and a good run in the NFL. He should leave it before it leaves him. |

I know he is one of the most dangerous pass-catchers in the league, and has sometimes looked like an NFL MVP, but this isn't basketball and if Jimmy wants to be remembered as a great football player, he's gonna have to start playing a little meaner and nastier.

The worst thing was when Jimmy started a fight pregame vs Seattle in the playoffs talking about how good he was, then he went on to catch 1 pass for 5 yards, with 3 drops and flinched every time he saw earl Thomas. |
