Looking to inspire the club, Sean Payton on Friday signed fan favorite Deuce McAllister, who was inactive but led the team out onto the field before the game alongside Bush, who was wielding a black baseball bat with the inscription, “Bring the wood.”
New Orleans was off to the races, scoring its third TD in 6:46 when Bush ran left, stopped, started again, danced away from two defenders who fell on each other missing him, then rocketed into the open field for his 46-yard TD.
Bush finished with 84 yards rushing, 24 yards receiving and 109 yards on three punt returns. |
