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

I'm not one to call this guy a bust. I still think he has all the talent in the world to be a GREAT player, but he's in the wrong situation, I think.

I think he'd be better on a team like the Chargers or something. He's not an everydown back obviously, but I think he can be better utilized than what he has been.

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

No idea, but I will say he's disappointed me...

Coming out of USC, with all the hype everyone was giving him - you'd have thought he was the next Gretzky, Jordan, LT, whoever dominated their sport; so far he's looked extremely average, and hasn't been all that exciting to watch (when I've seen him).

Maybe it's just my mistake/misunderstanding from all the hype that surrounded him, but I expected from him what we saw from Adrian Peterson last year (who I knew was going to kill it). I was expecting this guy to come in and just blow up; but he never did, and still hasn't.

The usuals from both sides of the fence will make their appearance soon.

I actually think he's been fine. His problem is that he's very close to deserving the dreaded "injury prone" tag. A change of scenary won't help that. If he can stay healthy for an entire season... 2 in a row even, he'd be getting a few pro bowl votes.

His role with the Saints still needs to be improved. He played well this year when he was healthy but Pierre Thomas is a much better pure running back than Reggie. I realize you have to let him run the ball to keep the defense honest, but it's clear that Thomas is much better at taking handoffs.

I think his development has been slowed by all the injuries. He was forced into that role before he should've been when Duece got hurt in his second year, and since then they've been slowly trying to feel him out there but he keeps getting hurt.

He needs to become a slot receiver.

Adrian Peterson is in the right place. If AD went to the Patriots, he wouldn't have done what he did. Reggie is not in the right place. You can't tell me if he had the same type of plays run for him as Westbrook, his stats wouldnt be way better. Even that year they made the NFC championship, Reggie did very well, but he got his hands on the ball alot more.
