On Sunday December 3, 2006 New Orleans Saints fans finally got to see what they been waiting for since the beginning of the season… Reggie Bush scoring touchdowns. The New Orleans Saints were lucky in the NFL Draft when Reggie Bush fell into their hands as the number 2 pick in the draft.  Most people assumed he would go as the number one pick to the Houston Texans, but they went another direction, defense. Up until this week it seemed that the player the Saints were depending on to bring excitement was worth all he was supposed to be. Reggie Bush had only one touchdown this football season. 11 games and only one touchdown, this would have been bigger news if the Saints weren’t winning games. That’s the difference the NO Saints were winning games and making a push for the playoffs, and they were doing it with other key players not named Bush.
Well the real Reggie Bush finally showed up and showed the league, Saints, and especially the San Francisco 49ers that he is for real.  Reggie scored four touchdowns on Sunday the 3rd and he scored them in a variety of ways. He scored on a dive play, scored on a sweep, scored on a shuffle pass and he scored on a reverse.  He had 168 total yards on 20 touches of the ball. These are the type of numbers he was supposed to put up all year long. If Reggie Bush would have gone number 1 to the Houston Texans, we might have already seen these types of days. Reggie would have been the number one running back as he wouldn’t have had to split plays with anyone but instead he might be going to the playoffs in his rookie season. This way he can show his talents off in the post season and the rest of the league now knows he can put up these types of days.
