(5 / 514) = (x / 792)

x = 7.7 passes defended
Still less than Vaccaro's 8(not 7 Mr. Lester trying to skew stuff again).

I did it a different way by just multiplying everything by 1.35(the 35% less snaps added in).

KV had a run stop % of 5.8 which puts him 11th in the NFL

Bush had a run stop % of 2.8 which puts him at 47th

This is a Lester masturbation thread, if there ever was one.

But we should not be involved.
It's a private affair.

It's abundantly clear that he's that petty.

And it's hilarious that he's making up an argument that no one has presented.

No, Lester.

It goes like this:

There is a discussion. You make your point. Your point is disproven, so you resort to fallacious arguments in order to make your point seem correct. Some of us rightfully get annoyed with that.

then why did people laugh at me when i said he played better than vaccaro?


Look, this isn't my pissin contest and I'm not knighting for anyone, but you twist the stats and argue semantics.

So what you are saying is Bush is better than Vacarro. Make that your thread title then.

And if that is what you are saying, thats probably why we were laughing at you. Vacarro is better. All day every day. He brought a toughness to our defense that we were lacking. Now I'm not knocking Bush at all, I wanted us to keep him. I think he hits with intentions. But in my opinion Vacarro is better. So we will have to agree to disagree.

Breaking down PFF, KV had a much, much better year than Bush and allowed the Saints defense to get off the field.

He gave opposing offenses a lot of negative plays and played out of position due to the corner injuries.

You're taking away from him b/c he got beat in the slot every once in a while despite the fact that Bush never even covered slot receivers

We put him on Vincent Jackson and he got beat, that is going to happen. Bush only did that for 11 snaps all season

KV's versatility allows him to play in more favorable matchups...



I think they are equally versatile, it's just that Vaccaro got first crack, and rightfully so.

I think Bush probably surprised them as the games went along, thus his playing time and role increased.

They played on the field a good bit together, so it's difficult to compare their stats head-up since they werent totally in the same roles

What are you basing Bush's versatility on? You can think that, but you have nothing to back it up with.

I don't think anyone here would disagree with this. His ability to play safety very well and KV's versatility allowed the Saints to have 2 sure tacklers in the secondary. It was crucial once Greer went down

Because Bush had a defined role and KV was placed all over the field

you get annoyed because there is always some truth to what i say.

otherwise you wouldn't bother with me. Everything i say is backed up with facts & well thought out opinions.

Right, like when you came into the last thread and told me the same thing when we were talking about our WR production. Just about every measure showed a slip in production(as well as the naked eye, which was obvious), and you still claimed i was spinning shite. lol.

At first I saw he actually started a thread

Then I saw he was still trying to prove he was right from a previous thread

Then I read he thinks people were laughing at him

And lastly reading all the points contained in said thread he's further away from being right than he was before he started it

He was good in run support and was an enforcer with the ball in the air.
