Reggie Bush College days revisited..

st. jon's said

Guys, I love having Reggie Bush just like the rest of you, but I'm personally sick of the over used "DECOY" excuse. He needs to grow a pair and step up big during the second half! Yeah... Yeah... He's a rookie. Well, he's got 8 games under his belt. I'm no longer considering him a rookie. IT’S TIME TO STEP UP REGGIE!

LET’S GO SAINTS!!!

11-5 and a chance at the Super Bowl would be a great season.

So you are going to completely dismiss part of his game? Are you going to overlook how Colston run blocks? Are you going to dismiss how Deuce catches the ball? Are you going to dismiss how our Te's block? I don't understand the school of thought that say reggie being a decoy is an excuse. It's not an excuse, it's a direct example of reggie Bush's effect on our team.

There are 5 things Reggie does on the football field.
1. Run- below average
2. Catch- above average
3. Blocking- above average
4. Special teams-above average
5. Decoy- priceless

You cannot discount an aspect because it doesn't apply to every player or you're just not used o it. Him being a decoy thus far has had just as much of an impact than if he had run for 6 yards a carry!

And as far as not onsidering him a rookie because he's played 8 games, EARTH TO ST. JON'S,THERE'S 16 GAMES IN A SEASON NOT 8!!!!!! He is a rookie for the rest of this season whether you choose to accept it or not.
