How to use Reggie Bush in the Playoffs...

foreverfan · 12-31-2010, 11:41 AM

Lets face it... 2010 has been one big bust for Reggie Bush.

The hype is that he's the most talented player on the field. I scream BS.

Reggie is the ultimate tease player. He could be labled a coach killer if it wasn't for Brees.

Still, he is what he is. So my questions is... how would you use him in the playoffs and/or how do you thing Payton will use him in the Playoffs.

Happy New Years and everybody stay safe tonight.

Split back set with Ivory
Play action pitch outs
Slot receiver
End arounds
Shovel passes
Draws and screens

All of these can work if they're called at the right time, and if he's open as a WR, Brees will find him.

It's not that he's a bust, it's that we don't use him right. He'll never be an up the middle RB. Honestly, I don't think he'll be a good screen back.

However Reggie is used, HE needs to make the most of it.

Use him like we did in last years play-off game against the Cardinals. Arguably his best game as a pro...

Stand him on the sidelines with a naked Kim Kardashian - and then trade him for Steven Jackson...... ok sorry bout that... SEE ALL THE ABOVE.

Use him to block.

Not a bust.Just injury prone.

I am not taking the bait again and starting a Reggie bashing...nope. But most plays with him lined up in a slot.
