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

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'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.

If anyone thinks Bush would've done well behind our O-Line, they are delusional.

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.
