She also said Reggie Bush and Lance Moore are out.

Re: Bush, Moore & Saints CB's Greer & Porter Out?

Glad someone else heard that, because she worded it in a very awkward way. Wasn't sure whether to start a thread or not.

NFL Network just confirmed Bush is inactive.

Re: Bush, Moore & Saints CB's Greer & Porter Out?

It's not official, but her report was clear in what you said. If it ends up being incorrect she is just wrong because she was definitive in her statements.

WOW.. That puts a crimp in their passing game as Bush is their best receiver out of the backfield and Moore was their slot receiver. It still leaves Colston, Meachem, Shockey and Henderson, as well as Bell and Thomas. But Bell and Thomas aren't nearly the threats out of the backfield that Bush is.

This game just got even MORE exciting...

Wow. I actually had thoughts of Bush in open space doing crazy, uncool (for us) things. The CB losses are also quite a development.

I don't think it necessarily changes the outlook completely, but not having to worry about Bush ripping a 60 yard score on a dump off is probably going to free up defenders to worry about something else.

Re: Saints Inactives:

What's keeping Bush out of the game?

He's trying out for the US Olympic team as a long jumper because he scored a touchdown leaping from 18 feet out.

must say sean payton pulled a BB move with the surprise inactives IMO.

It'll be weird seeing Randall Gay out there defending passes vs Brady.

Hope Brady toasts him on a regular basis!

Damn... 100% agree. Their pass defense and passing game are both depleted. That pretty much makes up for HFA, IMO- even game now...

MORE exciting because one of the more exciting players in the NFL is out?

Weren't you one of the people complaining about people being happy for injuries?

I am not sure, but Kim Kardashian might have knocked him over with her big fat butt.

He's not 'happy for injuries' you Colts lovin' buffoon.

He's simply buzzed that a guy further down the depth chart is getting shot.

I think he meant more exciting in the way that it means the Pats have a better chance at winning without Bush.

I remember the first game we played Jason david on the Saints, Peyton and Reggie torched him for 2 touchdowns real fast

Considering that Randall Gay sucks in Jason David-esque proportions, I wouldn't be surprised if the same happens here.

Did you ever see private Ryan?
