There are 25 days to go until the New Orleans Saints kick off their regular season, and we're highlighting one of the best plays that Reggie Bush made while wearing a black and gold No. 25 jersey. Bush scored a 46-yard touchdown run against the Arizona Cardinals during the 2009 playoffs to extend his team's lead, which you can watch here.

It proved to be a pivotal play. The Saints had gotten stunned by a 70-yard Tim Hightower touchdown run on the first play from scrimmage, but they battled back with a couple scores of their own (Lynell Hamilton punched in a touchdown from thee 1-yard line, and Jeremy Shockey caught a 17-yard pass from Drew Brees on the next drive).

Then Bush stepped up and put the game firmly out of reach for Arizona. He danced and dodged around several Cardinals defenders before taking off into the open field, and they had no hope of catching him. Bush's touchdown and Garrett Hartley's extra point put the Saints up by 21-7, and Arizona never closed the gap before going home. New Orleans won at home, 45-14, and advanced to matchups with even greater stakes in the NFC Championship  Game and Super Bowl XLIV.
