Biggest Game Ever


Reggie Bush has mastered the Three R’s of football. Running (390 yards, a 5.6-yard average and five touchdowns). Receiving (47 catches, three touchdowns). Returning. (four career touchdowns, plus one in the 2009 playoffs). It took a while for Bush to fulfill the potential the Saints saw in him when they selected him second overall. He didn’t have the bulk to be an every-down running back. He didn’t have the size to be a full-time wide receiver. And no one has the luxury of spending a first-round pick on a kick returner. Yet he has been doing all three for the Saints. His only problem is that he tries to force big plays instead of allowing the big play to come to him. It's my decisiveness that has hurt him. Now Bush has raised his game in the playoffs and has helped the Saints reach their first Super Bowl. Now, he wants to help them win it.
