Steve Slaton IS what Reggie Bush was SUPPOSED to be!

The guy is a beast. I am a fan. I liked him in college and he was regarded much higher it seems before his final year. I didn't expect him to be THIS good though. He can run in and outside is a threat out of the backfield and is the breakaway threat that this team has NEVER had. 3rd down back?! :lol:

I agree, he's a stud and I love watching him play. He's shown to be much tougher than was expected. This team has a lot of really good pieces in place now for the first time ever. If we pick up another solid back to compliment him and continue to improve the defense we could actually be pretty scary next year/in the years to come.

Reggie who?

Also how amazing is Andre? I love him. He just goes out there and lets his play speak for itself(unlike some other WR's I could name) and just continues to impress me. I've always felt he was easily a top 3 WR in the league but never got much love because he's stuck on a bad team, but now that we finally have a decent QB and our team is clearly getting better he's showing how good he really is. I can't really think of a single WR in the league I'd take over him. The guy is a stud.

<3 Andre and Slaton.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Our offense is set for the next few years.

It looks like we're probably going to go defense the first three rounds...Impact LB, Safety and DE

From the time he was at USC, I maintained that Bush's problem was getting through the O-line. That's still the case, which is why I think he'd be a damn good receiver. He's good in the open field, but is maybe not even an average running back.

It really has worked out well in the RB department. I'm curious to see who steps up as his primary backup.
