Frank Gore vs Reggie Bush
Who would you take?
Both are probably going to do great next year.
Choices?

Umm, like who do I want as my back, or who is gonna have a better season next year??
Reggie's getting a bigger role next year, but Gore will be getting like all the carries, and will be the star on his offense.
I would take Reggie Bush if I had to take one, particularly for what the Saint's need out of him.

Either way (Performance Next Year, or otherwise) I'd take Reggie Bush...
There's just no resisting his ability to move into the Slot, and scare the bejesus out of whoever's covering him.
Now...if only he'd stop getting happy feet so much, then you'd essentially have Marshall Faulk... but with more speed...

Because since Brees is doing good they should pass more
while Gore is the best on the Niners
I think we will be running the ball more this year, the line will be more experienced, Deuce should be fully recovered, Bush will be better.....
I still think Gore will put up bigger stats next year, but like I said, I wouldn't give up Bush for him.
I wouldn't give up Bush for any back though, he's got to much upside, and a style conducive to longevity.
The Saints seemed to get away from the run a lot when they shouldn't have. I know in the Philly game in the playoffs, I don't remember the stats, but I know Deuce was beasting it, and just getting yards at will, but we kept going away from him.

Obviously, as many suggest, it depends on what you want from your back, and health.
I am personally a fan of the Bush type of back, as that's the type I was (just style, not quality, obviously)...but I admit that if you want a feature runner in most sets, you can count on a Gore type more. He's your E. Smith type, with better speed and lesser read and line. I've never loved watching that type as much, but OC's often love them.
DC's worry somewhat more about the game breakers, though. One other thing, though, in Gore's defense...he has more playmaking and burst than I thiunk many give him credit for. He's not just a 4 yards in a cloud of dust guy.
So, as a fan, as an ex-running back, all that, I prefer Bush. But I might prefer to bank on setting up around Gore, assuming his knee holds out.

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
