Yea really. I just don't see the point in arguing the 2 against each other. They will both be used appropriately; like SP said there depth chart should read 1A & 1B , not 1 & 2.

I am not trying to knock on Reggie. I was trying to put things in perspective with regards to his TD totals. I like Reggie, and hope he succeeds, but there's always an excuse for him by so many Saints fans.

If you bring up that Pierre had equal or better production, all of a sudden the competition he faced was worse. I am happy we have both.

Then do the same for every other back on the team.

Like explain how Thomas has NEVER been a full time back (his highest carry total in ANY season has been like 158--and that was at Illinois). Or explain how he has exactly one more 100 yard game than Bush does, yet everyone believes that he's the greatest thing since sliced bread. People like to bring up his 100/100 game, but they neglect to mention that the Bears defense was decimated that day.

Here's an idea: ACCEPT FACTS FOR WHAT THEY ARE. Bush was leading the league in touchdowns prior to his injury, and Thomas is an excellent complimentary back. The absolute best way to use our running back tandem is to do something similar to what we did in the second meeting vs. Atlanta in 2008. That was brilliant. Granted, Atlanta's defense was worse than our defense last year, but still...
