Title: Congrats Reggie Post by: EKnight on December 29, 2013, 04:12:51 pm Bush with his second 1000 yard season, despite missing 2 games. -EK
Title: Re: Congrats Reggie Post by: MikeO on December 29, 2013, 04:17:12 pm He leaves Miami, Fins are 1 game better than last year with him. He goes to Detroit and the Lions still finish under .500 with him. Regardless in both places, little impact made by him and neither were or are playoff teams.
He is a marginal RB at this stage in his career who is often injured Title: Re: Congrats Reggie Post by: Guru-In-Vegas on December 29, 2013, 04:23:37 pm ^ Yup. Pretty much.
Title: Re: Congrats Reggie Post by: Spider-Dan on December 29, 2013, 06:34:07 pm Looks like Reggie posted his second-biggest season ever in two categories: rushing yards and fumbles.
Title: Re: Congrats Reggie Post by: MikeO on December 29, 2013, 06:35:06 pm Looks like Reggie posted his second-biggest season ever in two categories: rushing yards and fumbles. Yep!!! And his team won 7 games and didn't make the playoffs. How much of an impact did he have?

He is a marginal RB at this stage in his career who is often injured He's well above marginal, and 5X better than anyone on Miami's roster. I think he did have quite an impact early on for the Lions, and you really can't hang Detroit's season ending collapse entirely on him. Yes he does miss time due to injuries, and had some fumbling problems down the stretch, but I still wish Miami had him. More importantly he has some leadership ability, something sorely lacking in Miami.

Title: Re: Congrats Reggie Post by: Tenshot13 on December 29, 2013, 11:41:17 pm Bush would be bald eagle behind our line.

He gave an interview last week throwing teammates and coaches in Detroit under the bus Title: Re: Congrats Reggie Post by: Dave Gray on December 31, 2013, 10:41:26 pm I like Bush. I do.
But as this is clearly a veiled attempt to mock Dolphins fans for not re-signing him, I'll bite: I'm glad he's gone. Good teams don't overpay for any RBs, much less ones on the downside of their careers. A great RB is an asset, but it really just takes a guy who can run through a hole. The better players make a move or break a tackle here and there and help their team out. Reggie Bush would do none of those. He's a "dancing" type back anyway. He's be losing yardage on every snap behind this line. |
