Decoy or No Decoy

Besides the fumble I thought that Bush has a pretty good game. There were a few runs/catches that he made where he got past the corner and if it was Pierre it probably wouldn't have happened.

Pierre did fumble which has been mentioned and Mike Bell had a very costly fumble against Detroit. It happens.

Bush isn't Barry Sanders but he gets more yards than he gets credit for gaining. I think he stays around for awhile.

Now that I have been overcome with a calmer mindset I think I know why it is very difficult seeing Reggie faltering. It all boils down to expectations. Our expectations of what RB are is dramatically different than that of PT23 or Bell. The fact is we/I bought into the hype that came with RB and I just have not seen it nor has he lived up to my expectations. I either have to lower my expectations or RB has to raise his bar. Not sure but one of them has to happen.
