For anyone that still thinks Bush doesn't have rushing lanes

Boy, some Saints fans (as I am sure its true with other teams fans) just can't admit that one of its "star" players just isn't getting the job done. We saw it for years with Aaron Brooks. He would consistantly not get the job done, but fans would always defend him blaming other people for his woes.

Bush isn't getting it done in the running game. Not a huge deal, we are 6-2 (heck I only predicted 6 wins for the year). I agree Reggie has been a huge part of the sucess (1st down receptions, being a decoy, game winning punt return), however we need to put more responsibility on Reggie for his lack of rushing yardage and yards per carry.

Stop overreacting. He deserves critism (that doesn't give people the right to bash him for being a bust, like a post currently on the 1st page). He isn't getting it done in the rushing game, thats obvious. I am not calling him a bust, I am not saying he should not have been drafted #2 overall, I am not saying anything "negative". Simply stating most of his rushing problems are his fault, no-one elses. I can't seem to fathom why some fans just can't admit that..... He isn't Superman, however he has been a key to our success.

Btw, before some fans take this wrong..... I am not comparing him to Aaron Brooks as far as being a player. I am comparing the way fans defend him and put blame on someone elses shoulders rather than letting him take the heat.

I never said Reggie doesn't need to improve. He does. But if you think the offensive line is opening up major lanes to run through, you're mistaken. Our running game period needs to improve, especially if we hit the playoffs. We have to pound the rock.

Running was hard against the Bucs and Ravens and will be next week against the Steelers. If he ran north and south today, he would have 20 yards at most, which is definitely better than -11. I have faith this will be worked out soon enough. And for now, as long as we're winning, I'm not too concerned. The attention he draws is a great, great asset to this team.
