What do you expect from this guy? I expected him to be a Marshall Faulk running for a 1000 yards and catching the ball out of the backfield. Honestly his first 2 seasons have been average.

I thought out of college he would be average because everybody has the speed he has and he can't go through the tackles. I think he should just become a wide receiver.

Reggie Bush is a BUST.  The saints are going nowhere with him in the backfield.  He was great in college because USC is ridiculous on all sides of the ball compared to the competition.  I still loved that hit (think it was Dawkins, but dont know for sure because I was laughing too hard) in the 2006 playoffs.

His a bust with a shit ass SAINTS team. Plus injury and when he gets the ball his a big time wanted man. No question about that.

He could be a great player, the Saints just haven't figured out how to use him.  Let him develop as a running back, not a split back or receiver or something crazy like that.

Bets used as a scat back or 3rd down specislist out of the backfield. Not a true feature back though.

if he was used like kevin faulk on the Pats is used he'd be nasty...quick little out patterns and screen plays for first downs and more....I agree he's not a featured back, I think he's best catching a pass 5 yards off the line and creating something.

That hit is the only reason that I remember the name Sheldon Brown.

BTW, 2 seasons isn't shit. Give him a few more years and see if he gets better.

Bush would be a bonafide stud in Denver's offense, he's on the wrong team, that's all.

Bush came in with too much hype.   Defenses are really keyed up to stop him, they don't want to show up on a Reggie Bush highlight reel.   Also the fact that he can't break one-one tackles hurts his ability to make long runs.    And having a suck-ass  ofensive  line to run behind doesn't help either.

Not a bust at all, better used as a change of pace back.  Just let Deuce or Pierre pound the middle, and let Bush take the sidelines!!!!  Most of all, Bush was a great PR move and he sells tickets, not a bust!!! It is what it is!!!!

I remember hearing the talk when he came out of college he was supposed to be Barry Sanders esk. I laughed my ass of. He didnt belong in the same breath. Barry Played for the lonely Lions and in my bias self became the greatest running back ever.

Bush is a great athlete but still needs to develop...He doesnt have quite the size that he needs to be a power running back so they need to find a way to use him like Westbrook...Saints O Line stinks too so we wont know what he can do until that improves...If he is doing the same thing 3 years from nowthen i guess we can say hes a bust but until then im going to give him a couple more years...Lendale White is playing better ball then him right now...Just goes to show what size does at the RB position in the NFL...
