Injuries have started to pile up for the Saints. None so costly as the injured Marques Colston. Although he did not have a big first game his presense allows others to have big games. I was hoping that Robert Meachem could be that kind of target for Brees and maybe one day he will but it was not yesterday. The Saints still looked fairly good against the Skins but were not quite good enough for the win.
The winning score came against the Saints injured secondary. Tracy Porter was a little behind Santana Moss for the long pass from Campbell. The Saints still need to work on eliminating the big pass play.
Bush had a nice game that included a 55 yard punt return for a touchdown. He also had 28 yards rushing and 63 yards receiving.
Shockey took a small step backwards causing an interception and loosing a fumble. He should bounce back for the next game.
Deuce is still being used in a limited roll but I expect that to change. The Saints had a hard time moving the ball on the ground against the Skins so look for Deuce to have a bigger roll when tough yards are needed.
My fantasy leaders for week 3 are (QB: Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers)(RB: Brandon Jacobs, Reggie Bush, Michael Turner)(WR: Randy Moss, Greg Jennings, Calvin Johnson)(TE: Jeremy Shockey, Antonio Gates)(K: Martin Gramatica, Rob Bironas)(D/ST: Saints, Patriots)

Smedley what are you looking at for those fantasy predictions? Terrible! Guaranteed 100% Best QB: P. Manning, RBs: Lynch, Turner, Kevin Smith, WRs: R. Moss, Plaxico, Ocho Cinco, and DE Green Bay again.
What the hell is up with Denver being favored by 5.5? Denver eats it and the saints even with a depleated lineup are F*cking insanely good. Smedley get to the bottom of this.
One of my connections in Vegas said the reason Denver is favored is because they paid off the refs to help them win close games this season. Just look at the fiasco that happened against San Diego.
