he got put on IR

The New Orleans Saints have placed Reggie Bush on the injured reserve list, ending his season with two games to play.

To fill the space on the roster, the Saints signed cornerback Michael Lehan, who had been with the Miami Dolphins.

In five games this season, Lehan had 11 tackles and no interceptions.

Bush injured his left knee against the Carolina Panthers on Oct. 19, and had arthroscopic surgery the next day to repair a torn meniscus. He missed four games for rehabilitation.

Good news?

Get help dude.

Get off your high horse.

He means good news we don't have to play him, not that he is injured.

I wonder if Brees will play, it will be a pointless game and Brees already knows what can happen in those games (when he was with the Chargers).

I don't risk my probowl QB for the sake of nothing, against a good defense none the less.

Actually, I don't see it as good news. Every rushing attempt that Reggie Bush can take away from a competent running back is a plus IMO. These guys usually take sadistic delight in trying to knock us out of the playoffs. If they have a chance at that, it'll be a tough game. Our luck? Deuce gets healed up just enough to have a "statement" game before he retires.

We will win on Sunday. If we don't, and we still can't beat the Saints, then maybe we don't deserve the division. I don't doubt that TB, ATL, and DAL will lose at least one of their 6 remaining games, putting us in the playoffs, regardless, but I would like to think a Super Bowl team goes at least .500 on the road. And of course I would rather play the Saints without Bush than with.

Considering that neither Tampa nor Atlanta was able to beat the Saints in New Orleans, I certainly wouldn't feel any shame in claiming the division crown even if we lost to the Saints.

      I think we pick it up and then someone else ends up emerging as the QB next year and we end up cutting him in year 5 and eating it.  That would be the most on brand thing to happen.

      Film on Panthers defensive failure. Same scheme issue over and over

      Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
