Enough about Bush's toughness...

darstep · 10-22-2007, 10:34 AM

I don't know what else Reggie has to do to get doubters off of his back. He's elusive and will get even better as he settles into his NFL skin. Payton can help him by leading Karney when he runs Reggie between the tackles. He can also give MikeK 3-5 carries just to break up the monotony and keep the defense honest. It is tough for Reggie to turn corners by design, or any back in this league, but his speed and quickness are awsome tools that CAN lead to his greatness if used effectively. We must PLAN to run, establish the run, and not give up on the run toooooooooo soon. Someone get this message to Payton - PLEASE!

I thought I was complimenting the guy. Sorry I rubbed you the wrong way by expecting great things from him. It's only cuz I think he's great.

If this post is in respone to my starting thread then....

You didn't rub me the wrong way and trust me....you were not alone. A LOT of people have been doing this. We all expect great things from him. I just figured that after last year...ESPECIALLY after what he did in the divisional game would anyone question it.

If this post was not for me....then ignore. ;0)

That is a great commercial.

I think Reggie is doing a great job now and I'll stand behind my statement that I think the best of Reggie is yet to come. Reggie's acceleration and speed is phenomenal, he's exciting to watch in the open field where he's rarely 1 tackle away from taking it all the way. I can't wait for sunday in SanFran, I'm looking for Reggie to have an outstanding day.

Fujita said it himself hes getting tired of people questioning Bush toughness. He also said Bush works harder than anyone on the team. You have people like Deion Sanders, Terrell Davis saying this guy will never be great in the NFL because hes not tough. You know what Deion can do go keep kissing Devin Hesters butt. Thats all this guy talks about is Devin Hester.

I always wondered where, when, and who started this crap about his toughness. I thought last year he proved his toughness, I mean how many RBs could get up after the blow he took in that Philadelphia game and be a main contributor in the victory, Reggie just keep doing your thing, to HELL with the HATERS, we the true BLACK & GOLD NATION got your back.

I don't understand why people say that he is not tough. He is playing a tough sport in the NFL, and that is itself is tough. And that TD proved his toughness.
