Saints Blog: Reggie Bush Was Splendiferous

Reggie Bush is who we thought he was! He is who he thought he was! And that's why the Saints took the field! As SB Nation's Saints blog Canal Street Chronicles explains, for one night at least, Drew Brees wasn't New Orleans' MVP:

Reggie Bush was awesome. As good as Drew was, this is the first time this season he's been unequivocally beaten out as the game MVP. This was the Reggie we thought we'd see every game when he was drafted; but I forgive him for all the frustration of the last couple years if he can just keep it up for two more games.

Even without that beautiful 46-yard TD, Reggie was averaging over 9 yards a carry. He added 4 catches for 24 yards--and, of course, one magnificent punt return through the heart of the Cardinals. And I mean that like, a stake.

But in a game where the Saints held the high-flying Cardinals to 14 points, it's clear the Saints defense deserves some praise too. Canal Street Chronicles singled out Jabari Greer as playing especially well on Sunday:

Jabari Greer did his best imitation of the Invisible Man. Where was he? Why did I never hear his name called? Because they rarely challenged him, that's why. He is probably an even more significant free agent pickup than Darren Sharper to this defense, and the return of Greer and Porter to the starting lineup is the change that will catapult this team into Landshark Stadium.
