Reggie is still all show and no go. Every time I watch the Saints play and they call his number I hold my breath and pray he doesn't screw up. Reggie still doesn't hit the line and run through it. He still has to stop and dance until he sees an opening... if he sees one. He gives the defense as much time as they need to locate him, get their hands on him and drag him down. The Saints offense is stellar, he needs to trust his offensive line is going to open a lane for him to run in, Reggie justs needs to blow through the line and RUN through it, but as usual he'll dance and wait for the hole to close up on him. Then there's the fact that he doesn't like to take a hit. Instead of lowering his shoulders and bulling into a defender for another yard or two, he'll stand up and dance to try to make the defender miss him or just fall down. If Reggie could stop all his dancing and just bust straight into the gap with full force, lower his shoulders and run over defenders instead of dancing with them he just might do something... but he can't, he has the highlight reel to think of. Hey Reggie! Try actually playing football like a real man, hold onto the ball, and post some decent yards per carry by running instead of dancing... I bet you'll still make the highlight reel.
