Reggie Bush is well on his way...

There's a difference between "He didn't play up to my expectations" and "he sucked."

By saying "he sucked," that might leave someone to believe that you think he sucks. Call me crazy.....

Even if I said he sucked on Sunday ? Did you bother to read any post where I defend Mario when people say he's a bust? No...You just took what you wanted to hear and ran with it...I am a big fan of Mario and Bush... One had a good game and the other didn't...This happens to be a Texans board so I commented on the negative things I saw that Mario did....I don't know how to put it any more plainly than that...

I may have misread or misinterpreted or exaggerated/straw-manned you. I do it from time to time. It's a product of laziness moreso than malice, so no hard feelings if that was the case.

I'll admit that you're saying the opposite of what you were yesterday, so you defend him also.

Have fun with the last word. I'm done here also.

If I were a Saints fan and Reggie Bush got the nod ahead of Deuce...I would be absolutely pissed.

Bush is a flashy player who's NOT a #1 running back. He's great at using open space to make guys miss as well as sliding out and playing WR. He's NOT good at powering the football between the guards to get that tough 1st down. Look at the championship game against UT...they went to White instead.

That's not to say he's not good or doesn't have talent. But Reggie Bush isn't perfect, he has flaws in his game that just won't allow him to do certain things (i.e. carry the ball 25+ times). Anyone who thinks he can do that is being entirely unrealistic. How successful is Vick when he's stuck inside the pocket for an entire game? His abilities simply do not complement a pure passing game.


Texans fans...we picked Mario Williams. Get over it. I've said this before and I'll say it again...if you think we needed Bush then you didn't want Kubiak. Our running system HATES flashy backs like Bush. And while for a year or two we might be pining for a flashy back, once our offensive line begins to click, we'll see just how much cap room we'll save each year in being able to use a highly effective RBBC system. With the money we could save from not taking Bush, we might just be able to find some killer DB's in the future. Have hope! :fans:

Barry Sanders.........he ran behind a line a bad as the line you have there, AND he made them look good. Reggie is exactly the kind of back Texans needed. Able to escape quickly due to the line protection crumbling. There are fans on here that are realistic, then there are fans that think Reggie was not worth the pick. You guys that are upset with managments pick have every right to be, they got it dead wrong and the NFL world knows it.

Mario does have the pontential to be a good player, but Reggie was a good player coming in. I truly thank the good lord he is not in your line up, the thought of him carving up our D scared the living crapola out of me. I'm not saying Mario was a bad pick, but I'm saying Reggie was a better pick.

Wrong about something there.. Barry Sanders ran behind a decent line. Detroit only had 3 plays in its playbook. Barry to the right, Barry to the left and Barry in the middle. There is a reason he quit very early into his career. Barry was a every down back.. at this time, Reggie is not. You folks think you know what we should pick. Tell you what? What makes you think you know? Surely it can be better the a 20 vet Offensive coach for the Broncos. You think they got it wrong.. go teach a team to the SuperBowl. Otherwise.. Hush and let give him a freakin chance to see what he saw. Someone who have been doing this a hell of alot longer then anyone here talking.

I'm just wondering when this board is going to finally admit that Bush is going to be a great player. Closing your eyes to reality makes you guys appear childish.

Once he does it in more than one game, and does it against an average defense, not Clevlands rebuilding experement. If he shows flashes this year against his division, it will be a start. But 1 game with Clevland isnt gonna put you in Canton.
 
what makes Mario's 2 tackles worth 54million. anyone who saw that game had to see Mario get stuffed by ONE guy all day long that sounds like a #1 pick to me.
