...guess you don't grasp the concept of the scout team...

Well yeah of course I do, I just don't see how having Bush in the Ronnie role will help prepare your 'D' for the wildcat. It will only prepare you for the way other teams try to run it.

..so I take it the Dolphins don't have a scout team. I mean, imagine trying to give the Dolphins D a taste of Drew and Marques and Lance and Shockey and PT and Henderson and Meachem and Evans and Bush.... so, basically what you are saying is that the Dolphins are going to prepare for the Saints by just looking at film... ok...

Well yeah you can only try to match the other teams offence and players as close as you can with your personal. Which is my point, you have 3 backs there and your telling me that Bush is the closest out of those 3 to simulate Ronnie's running style? It seems to me he would be the worst choice of the 3. Thats all I'm saying.

.. they are not trying to match the players. They are trying to match the plays..not only looking at the RB, but the blocking scheme as well.

Well thats an opinion I guess and everyone one has got one....Seems to me if the Coaching staff wants to practice with Reggie in the Wildcat who are we to question them......They haven't been wrong so far this year...

Pierre Thomas would be better in the role. He wears #23 after all. Stand your ground!
