Re: Bush draws Payton's ire again
 
Getting rid if Bush for some defensive talent is a great idea.

If Bush would just get it in his head that this isn't the PAC-10 and you aren't fast enough to break every play outside like you use to in college. This is the NFL.
EVERYBODY IS FAST!!!!!

The 2 plays that he did stay with the play and hit the hole that was designed to be there guess what happened?

1. He took it for a touchdown
2. He had the longest rush of his career like 65 yards or something.

Wait on the damn play to develop and then attack the hole!!!!!!

Funny who this topic keeps being brought up after I first mentioned it at the beginning of the season.

The writing is on the wall...

My patience is starting to get very thin with Reggie. I've defended him for quite some time but enough is enough. If he doesn't start to show some sign of improvement then its time to start weighing other options.

The offense looks so crisp when he's on the sideline and plays aren't called to force anything. We'll see what happens in the offseason

I'm one of the fans who has had Reggies back from the start. How he can go from the fleur de leap for a TD to someone who is totally lost is beyond me.

Maybe its the star mentality he has.
Usc had some stars, but bush is used to
being the focus. Now we have multiple
weapons, and standouts on both sides
of the ball. Maybe he feels like he has
to do even more. Kind of like an ignored
baby. The more u ignore, the louder it gets!

A kicker would be a nice addition. Carney was good but these days B.F. calls him sir.

Nah man, Hartley should carry us for the foreseeable future.

All we have to do now is convince someone that he's worth the 8-mil he's got coming. Would you just highlight his TD's and his versatility...or would those be reasons to keep him...and keep him in the positions where he excels???...and keep him out of the areas where he struggles??? Reggie has been fighting nagging injuries and is just too light in the pants to try to lower the boom on even the smallest DB's he faces. Sean is right for jumping him when he gives up 1 yard short of a first down, he needs to get reamed for that one, and anyone else who doesn't take it to the max. Reggie is just Reggie. He'll probably make a few more bone-head plays before its all over. At the end of the day, his plusses outweigh his minuses.

third and 1. His star power, should not dictate play calls. If he is not cutting it, get him
off the field. I'm sorry, but I don't see him here next season. There are a lot of "dynamic"
Rbs coming out in the draft, that won't cost us 10 million dollars next year.

Nail, meet head !!!

???

At the end of the day he got benched!

He is a 3rd string RB and quickly losing touches as a PR. This offseason we are going to have another open slot for a legit 3rd string RB and hopefully won't have to eat the cap hit.
