Why wouldn't they want to hear it? I think they already know this. Quick, give me five running backs who average more than 20 carries in a game in the NFL?
thats been a known stat since before we had the #1 pick.
He only gets 15 carries a game or so. He touches the ball more with the dump off passes.
He would be one half of a dual threat with him and DD sharing carries. Each getting about 15 a game. Would keep both of them fresh and solve the durability issues DD has been having.

You want him on the titans? freaking take him. Enjoy your bust running back and your old quarterback. I'll take young any day.

Please note the "might" in my previous statement.
I'm not on anyone's bandwagon, to be honest. I see great potential in both Bush and Young.
By all accounts, and this goes from talking heads to proven NFL analysts and scouts, Bush is the REAL DEAL. So please don't belittle him because you're high on Young.
There is room for both of them to be great someday.

Bush actually carried the ball more than Lendale White did this year. It was only 3 more carries (200 vs. 197, 3042yds combined), so you could say that the two split the carries. Either way, that's a pretty potent 1-2 punch.
King should also note that those two games where Bush got 20+ carries, he went nuts.
Fresno St. - 23 Carries 294 yards
UCLA - 24 Carries 260 Yards
He had another game where he had 20 carries for a pathetic 122 yards (sarcasm) against Oregon.

unfair analysis. Know who your talking to. I was down on bush when i was in the dbrick camp. There is room for both to be great. I just dont think one will be. Have always thought this. I trust me more than i trust talking heads.

Why would Reggie Bush carry the ball 20 times at USC??? They have LenDale White who shared the load with him. I'm sure if he had to carry the ball 20 times he could easily have done that. What is important is that he get's the opportunity to touch the ball whether it is in the running or passing game. If Bush carries the ball 13 or 14 times a game for us and makes the big plays that he did with USC, I won't have a problem with it at all. Plus you know he's going to catch some balls out of the backfield.
I'm dizzy...stop this merry-go-round. Its amazing that people have any doubts about the best 2 athletes to ever enter the draft at the same time. Don't take Bust because VY's a bust, don't take VY because Bush is a bust...wow!
I would love to see VY in Texan gear just for what he has outside of athletic ability, but I'm not going to cry if Bush is here instead...although a declaration is way over due! Have we lost our minds? Thank God we only have until 4/29 to beat this horse to death. Give an inch and...ah, nevermind...

Bush only carrying the ball x amount of times does not worry me at all and I am not in the draft Bush camp.
The guy can flat out play. In the event he is drafted by the Texans, I will be happy about that stat.

no, your supposed to not make a generalization about my motivation. It is easy for you to say im bashing bush because i want young. Thats not true. As for my impressive scouting resume.....i got drunk with our pro scout once...does that count?

All this how many times he carries the ball mess is driving me insane.. Who cares if he only carried it 15 yards per game..
this guy still has 1700yards rushing and that's with 15 rushes per game, and splitting the carries with LenDale White.. so imagine what he could with 25-30 carries a game at college..
hmmmmm 3000 yards rushing.. come on now. oh my God that is soooo medicore (sarcasm)... be honest this guy is the REAL DEAL..

This is something that bothers me about Bush as well , I just dont see him pounding the ball between the tackles or taking on a tackler to get the extra yards ... There is NO Question about his elusiveness and speed once he gets in space but .... you have to get there first .
I think a lot of his success / failure in the NFL will be directly attributed to the system he's in and how he's used .

I have been anti Bush since the hype started. But if Kubiak became our head coach and brings in the right personnel for the zone blocking, I think Bush would do well here.
