Anybody else think Reggie Bush would be better on another team?

I think the best thing for him would be to move to WR. He can catch the ball. That would keep him away from taking a lot of hits from linemen and linebackers as much as he does as a RB. It would help him get into space a lot easier and that is what he really needs. Also, as a slot reciever that would take less out of him on offense so he could do more returning where he is very dangerous. I think he is on the right team if he makes this change. They have a great QB, a solid #1 reciever in colston, and plenty of other speed recievers who can atract attention away from reggie. This also keeps real running backs in the backfield so there is always the threat of the run.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way.

But you gotta think about the offense Eric Metcalf was in at the time. They reallly made him an integral part of the offense. I don't see the Saints putting in the same effort for Reggie

He's not a bust,...it's just that all those STDs that he is getting from Kim Kardashian are slowing him down.

Is it that the Saints are putting him in that position or is that he just isn't good enough to fill that position?

I believe that Bush could have thrived in either Denver,GreenBay, or Houston. Considering that both teams have played with smaller backs. In a one cut system guys like this won't have to really pound the football. These teams all zone block and don't rely on 230 pound backs to move the chains. The only problem with any back coming in todays NFL is the amount of touches they get and its unfortunate that the league is just getting the memo. I honestly believe they out to increase the roster to 64 players and 5 practice squad guys. This will prolong the careers of most of the guys coming in. The league could afford to do this. Look at all the signing bonuses given to rookies before they even play one down. I'm not trying to feel sorry for these people but I don't understand why the league cant protect the starters from playing offense,defense,and special teams during a 16 game season that they plan on expanding very soon to 18 meeks. It sounds like pure greed on the owners part.
