Reggie Bush has a torn PCL which could cause him to miss the remainder of the season.  This is a huge blow to the Saints who lost Deuce McAllister early in the season.  Bush has played in 12 games this season and he has carried the ball 157 times for 581 yards (3.7 ypc) with 4 TD runs and he also has caught 73 passes for 437 yards (5.7 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  Aaron Stecker will take over as the full-time starter at running back for the Saints and that’s not a good thing.  Stecker has played in all 12 games this season and he has carried the ball 59 times for 200 yards (3.4 ypc) with 1 TD run and he also has caught 24 passes for 127 yards (5.3 avg).  Stecker is too small to run between the tackles so that could open up playing time for undrafted rookie Pierre Thomas.  Thomas has played in 8 games this season for the Saints and he has carried the ball 19 times for 78 yards (4.1 ypc) with a TD run.
