But defense wins championships! DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS! You can't outscore the Colts!
/Texans FO still justifying the 1st round travesty
Exactly what was the travesty? Not drafting the guy they didn't need? The travesty was the brain dead Saints picking and sticking with Reggie Bush when they already have a young all pro running back who gives defenses a headache.
Two star running backs doesn't work. Eventually both of them will want to be "the guy" and they will bitch and complain til you have to deal one for a second-third round pick. Saints needed about a dozen other positions, instead they draft Reggie because THEY NEED STARS!! STARS!!!
The travesty was a team that averaged barely 16 points a game and was the 30th ranked offense in the NFL doesn't take the best playmaker in the draft in order to take a player who MIGHT get a sack a game if he's really REALLY good. People down here who have been defending the pick keep saying that "offense wins games, defense wins championships" but you need to win games before you get the chance for championships.
And Bush can be more than just an RB. Slot, wideout, split back. He's talented enough that you can put him just about anywhere. Williams is someone who had 3 really strong games against weak competition and a great combine and turned it into a top pick.
