Reggie Bush

Listen.....Dunn did it.....Westbrook does it.....I'm sure Bush will too. Both of these guys too a little while to develop into big time backs due to their size...Bush is in the same category and he too will eventually run like you expect him to run. For now, I thought he did great yestarday. He took what the defense gave him and nothing more. he didn't go crazy....nor did he dance around for an hour. He ran well and will do better as the year goes on.

So you are saying he's going to contribute to a win eventually? He's got not blockers worth a damn right now. He can't carry a team nor will he ever. Why wasn't he that at USC? He was just the sports car on a very good, very talented team that let him out of the garage to return kicks and do some jukes moves and razle dazle the crowd. He was NOT nor WAS he EVER the go to guy at USC. So all of a sudden he is going to be in New Orleans??? makes no sense.

When you have the personnel you had at USC do you have to make him the featured back? Is any ONE guy supposed to carry a TEAM? Reggie has had numerous productive days here in NO. I'm sure if he had Emmit Smith's lines from the Cowboys he'd be all over but for now.....he's doing fine and he's only gonna get better. Especially considering that he has no blockers right now.

Reggie is just a rookie as a featured back. He has a lot to learn. Speed kills is a double edge sword. As for the OL I really hope at least two of our young guys step up and start. Just remember the panthers do have a couple of pretty good DL players to. All in all I have to say we did take a step in the right direction. Baby step but a step.

Still doesn't make any sense... you draft a guy to be a feature back and he never was not even at USC. How can he be now? He wasn't drafted to be a feature back he was drafted to sell jerseys nothing more.

So just to clarify, you're saying Reggie Bush has no value to the Saints other than to sell jersey's. Is that what you're saying?

Ummm....I'm kinda reading the same thing.

Ronnie Brown and Caddy Williams are both doomed for failure by his logic. McFadden and Jones out of Arkansas might as well not enter the draft either. Willie Parker must be a fluke as well.

The vast majority of collegiate programs run 2 or 3 back systems. They're all doomed. The future of NFL running backs are screwed.

He was NOT nor WAS he EVER the go to guy at USC.

You truly are clueless.

WhoDat said: "This will probably sound stupid, but I think Reggie accelerates too quickly to the hole. If you watch other runners they save that burst for when they get to the hole to blow past the LBs and DL. Reggie hits it at full speed and nothings had time to develop." The word is patience . . . He is too quick for his own good. Trying to make things happen instead of letting the play develop. But I think with a little time as the featured back he will acquire this wisdom.
