A test today confirmed that Saints RB Deuce McAllister has sufferd a season ending knee injury. The test showed what he was fearing the most a torn ACL in his left knee. An injury simalar to the one he had just two years ago in his right knee. The injury happened in the second quarter when Deuce reached high to grab a short pass from QB Drew Brees and landed awkwardly. McAllister said there was some damage also to the MCL. FB Mike Karney who has been Deuce's main blocker since 2005 was pretty badly chocked up when asked about the injury. "I hugged him and started crying" Karney said taking a deep breath. "It's tough to see a great guy, first and foremost,a great player have to suffer another season ending injury... he's the best i've been around. It's sad. it's hard to take... I play the game for guys like him". The job of is Squarely of carrying this huge load now falls on Reggie Bush. He'll be backed up by Aaron Stecker and first year back Pierre Thomas who had a pretty good pre-season. Reggie is already asked to do alot for the struggling Saints but will need to step up his game to bare this burden. The Saints need a win and need them fast if they are to get back into the hunt for post season play. Reggie looks to be a little beefed up from last season and looks like he may be able to carry the ball 20-25 times a game. That remains to be seen though. what the Saints need is some of the outstanding things he was able to pull off during his days at USC and late last season. If the Saints needed a wake up call this is it. If they needed some kind of emotional motovation it would be sad that it had to come due to an injury from athe one player who is the Saints. A fan favorite in and around the New Orleans area, who played his college ball a few hours away at Ole' Miss and still resides in Jackson,Miss. during the off-season. Personaly it's hard for me to say where the Saints season is headed but it doesn't look good from here. Deuce will be sadly missed for the remainder of this season. It will be interesting to see what Bush brings to the table. You can call me crazy,stupid and any other name you may come up with. This Saints fan still believes,still has faith and will never give up hope or on my home team that someday we'll be the spotlight of glory
