MYTH: Reggie Bush is the reason the New Orleans Saints went from being last place in the NFC South one year, to making it to the NFC Championship game the next year. He is also the key to whether or not they will be successful this upcoming season.

FACT: Reggie who? The real key to that team's success is Deuce McAllister. In 2005, he was placed on IR in the beginning of October, which ended his season. The Saints then went 3-13. The next year, Reggie Bush came along, and the Saints made it to the NFC Championship game. Therefore, many people thought Reggie Bush made the team successful. In the 2007 season, McAllister suffered a season-ending injury against the Titans in September. The team finished third place in the talentless NFC South, winning only seven games. Two of those wins were against the Falcons, and the other five were against the Seahawks, 49ers, Rams, Panthers, and Jaguars. Except for the Jaguars (an 11-5 who they somehow crushed 41-24), none of those games were wins against tough teams. With the possibility of six easy wins a year coming from the Panthers, Falcons, and Buccanneers, as long as McAllister stays healthy, and Drew Brees throws for at least 3,000 yards like he has done every year since 2004, the Saints will have a strong chance of making it to the playoffs and being a force in the NFC.
