REGGIE BUSH, an awesome contributor...

[LAKESHOW]

He said the SAINTS never truly gave him an opportunity in NO, but nevertheless, he delivered to them the World Championship. Wow, how gracious can you be...

He should flourish with Miami, but he needs to be consistent, so let's see if he can do that this season. Apparently his goal is to lead the league in rushing yards.

[NO-KG-AI]

He never was used properly as a runner. The only time he was given the chance to really be a "runner" and not a gadget runner was his rookie season, and he wasn't really ready for it until near the end... after that, we went away from it.

We can never seem to get the right carries to the right guys... Sproles doesn't have 1 this season, after averaging about 7 yards per carry last year.

I never understood the need for Saints fans to use Sproles production as a reason to not need Reggie. With the lack of talent at WR, and the inability of Mark Ingram to get yards, I think we'd be able to definitely use Sproles and Reggie, and both could be on the field together a ton. I'd prefer seeing a 4 "WR" package of Graham, Colston, Sproles and Bush than the stuff we trot out right now.

Great to see him doing well, sucks knowing how much talent we wasted trying gimmicks and punt returns :-/

[Bank Shot]

He's killed it since Week 8 last year. There was one bad game in there yardage-wise but he found pay dirt twice in that game. Every other game has been really good to amazing. I've had him on my fantasy team the last two years (I actually kept him in a three keeper league this year which lead to some chirps) and have watched a lot of Dolphins games (not always a fun experience). The USC Reggie Bush is back. The results are there and he passes the eye test. He's hitting holes really hard and of course he can make guys miss.

I'm happy for the guy. He's a hard worker and its paying off. He'll be up there in the rushing yard battle. He's Miami's only weapon and he even looked good vs. Houston's D.

Bush would definitely look good on the Saints...although really I just think they need to cut down on Ingram's carries and give them to PT. PT is just a lot better.

[C-izMe]

I actually kept saying he wasn't a bust and that it was a combination of the Saints and injuries holding him back. He has improved tremendously as a ball handler though (his ability to protect the ball has increased a ton).

[Higga]

The Saints had a ton of weapons during Bush's tenure there(still do really). Sean Payton has always been about spreading the ball around instead of relying on one guy carrying you so Bush didn't put up monster #s but he was a key part of that Super Bowl winning team.

Bush has talent, and in Miami he's now basically the only player worth a damn on offense(maybe the entire team)so no surprise he's putting up big #s.

[NO-KG-AI]

We really NEVER had a ton of weapons though... not comparable talent wise to Bush anyway. We've had some nice offensive lines, but all of our guys outside of Colston were always just... kinda meh, benefitting from Brees. Graham is the only guy I would say is a special talent even now.

Reggie should have been more of a focal point, just like Thomas should be right now. He was injured a lot though, but a lot of that was on "trick plays" and punt returns where he was getting twisted up.

I always held firm that the Bush or CJ type of back is by far the best type of runner/receiver to have out of the backfield if your offensive line is working properly. I'd prefer a bigger and more powerful guy behind a bad line, but if you have a bad line, you won't be competing for a superbowl anyway.

The Giants laugh at you. Last year their line was horrendous.

[JustBlaze]

Kind of strange that this is the 2nd time a super-hyped RB gets drafted early by the Saints, fails to meet expectations then seemingly revives his career in Miami, haha.

Not saying Williams or Bush were busts in NO necessarily, but definitely not what everyone thought they were going to be. Hopefully Bush can keep it going in Miami longer than Williams did.

[LAKESHOW]

The only thing similar about Bush and Williams is that they are both from San Diego, California. Reggie Bush has done something Williams nor any other runningback in N.O. has ever done. SUPERBOWL CHAMPION! Has never happened...may never happen again. We shall see, as they are in some serious disarray down there.

[Mamba Mentality]

I wouldn't jump to conclusions just because he had one good game. The Raiders have arguable one of the worst defenses in the league. We'll look back at this at the end of the season and laugh. Its a really misleading game in the grand scheme of things.
