Bush preformed no better in Miami, he just played in more games because he wasn't injured.

Remember how Trent Richardson was going to do great things when Cleveland traded him? Still the same 3.2 YPC back.

We're getting that precise? Fine.
Saints 524 2092 = 4.0 ypc
Dolphins 443 2072 = 4.7 ypc


averages of averages are not averages

In certain circumstances averages of averages are a an average as long as the averages have equal weight.

In regards to precision, your still not there yet buddy, your 2092 is actually 2920 And "almost" isn't quantitative, so your reply about "almost a yard" isn't as accurate as averaging averages isn't it? Not quite 3/4 is not almost 1.

My reply was relatively as accurate as yours but you seems to have knotted your nickers over a player that's been gone for 2+ seasons.

no knotting here--
to recap, Danno commented that we have had backs go elsewhere and be more successful. Agreeing, I gave two prime examples
Your contention was: "Bush preformed no better in Miami, he just played in more games because he wasn't injured"
I would argue that .7 yards more per carry with an increased workload is performing better

I would argue he actually had more yards per carry in NO, albeit between the hashes instead of the end-zones.

He also had his only full season in his career in Miami, also his only seasons over 11 games; so it seems it was a better move for his health also.
