1. Saints RB Reggie Bush vs. Falcons SLB Sean Weatherspoon: Since the Saints drafted Bush in 2006, they have posted a 7-2 mark against the Falcons. In both Atlanta victories, Bush was sidelined by injury. He missed the last game with a broken leg on Sept. 27. Ironically, Bush was out of the lineup with a knee injury when the Falcons beat them 34-20 on Nov. 9, 2008, at the Georgia Dome. The Saints will try to isolate Bush, the disgraced Heisman Trophy winner, in a mismatch with Weatherspoon, who said he is “close to 90 percent” recovered from his knee injury.
