He never claimed AP to be better at all, he said he would rather BUILD A FRANCHISE around Bush, who is a very versatile player, leading the league in receptions this year as well as having a respectable ground game.

AP

he was the 2nd best RB in his rookie season so just image how he'll be when he gets in his 2nd or 3rd year. + he's just as versatile as bush. He can catch return punts and if you want him to return kicks.

It's stupid to build your franchise around a running back, I'd build mine around a guy like Jonathan Ogden or Orlando Pace.

A great O-line can make guys like Chester Taylor or Mike Anderson look like studs.

Who says Usain can catch or run routes, you can't get any fast player and expect them to come in and know what their doing. Its hard running routes, catching, taking hits....

AP has the best O-Line in the game. Put in Matt Forte and he'll put up a 1300 yard season...

Adrian Peterson-elusive as Bush, but bigger and stronger. Bush has nothing on Peterson. He is a small running back who is jack of all trades master of none. He can't run between tackles so teams no everytime they hand the ball off to him it is likely to be a sweep. Bush also fumbles all the time. Didn't he lead the league in fumbles last year? Peterson is a beast and could go down as an all time great. Reggie Bush could never put up 296 yards against one of the best defenses in the game, or completely embarrass Chicago like All Day Peterson did.

Ill give you that but who makes those holes for him to get in the open field. Alot of running backs can fool safeties in the open field. Put in "Pierre Thomas" with this O-Line and he'll get 1200 yards.

Of course I'd take Bush, given that you have no one else on your roster, no o line, no QB, nothing. I'd take Bush. He's an offense to himself, don't get me wrong Adrian Peterson is one of the top couple pure runners in the game right now. He can't take a short swing pass the distance, he can't return a punt all the way and flip the momentum of a game in a matter of seconds. He isn't a safety blanket like Bush is. He isn't as versatile as Reggie.

A lot of people will take Peterson, but personally I'd like to start with Bush :confusedshrug:

Exactly. He's a nice player to have, but if your giving me an option between a top 5 RB in the league and a nice gimmick, I'll take the top 5 RB in the league.

Honestly you can't make a case for Bush. What's next Mario Williams or Dan Klecko? Devin Harris or Brandon Marshall? Chris Cooley or Jason Whitten?

Come on.

Its ok I feel you, Sterling has been horrible to us too until the last couple of years. Al Davis though goes on power swings however and loses his mind every once in awhile. I like McFadden and hopefully Davis doesn't treat him like he did Marcus Allen.

Glad you mention that!!!! I agree 100%.

09-22-2008, 06:41 AM
Jonathan Stewart is another phenomenal talent, he just faced a brutal front 7 from Minnesota yesterday and really couldn't get a single hole to run through.

AP is a beast no doubt but he has Hutchinson blocking for him, it's rediculous what one all-world OL can do to a RB's career. I mean yesterday, Minnesota practically beat a good team with 9 players. Their front 7, Hutchinson and AP/Taylor.

Stewart is just as good as Barber or AP at breaking tackles, he has the vision and he has the cutting ability. But his OL is no where near as good as Dallas's or Minnesota's. Stewart still returned a 90 kick off return yesterday but it got taking back on a very questionable blocking call, where the Panther player barely touched the dude.

McFadden and Stewart are my two favorite RB's in the league already, and of course I got love for Barber, LT, and AP.

Reggie Bush can't run the ball.
I agree!

I would rather build around the Raiders Bush than the NO Bush!
I dont think AP will ever play 16 games... He likes running into people to much. I hope he learns as he gets older or he wont make it to 28 in this league.


I think Barber is the most complete back... Next to a prime healthy LT.

To answer the question I would rather AP though. Bush could be my 3rd down back and return specialist.

Bush is to easy to tackle when he runs between the tackles. He needs space to make someone miss. Cant run through creases in the O-line.

Did I mention he's too easy to bring down when runs in close quarters...???

I think Felix Jones looks better than McFadden right now...but its probably cuz hes on the best team in the NFL. He is more compact and almost as fast...every time I see McFadden play he just stops and falls over every time he's touched...I wanna say he's easier to tackle than Bush.

My favorite is definitely AP, so jerky and violent. Second is Marion Barber cuz he's on my team and he's straight up DIESEL.

IMO Bush should officially be labeled a WR now

he lines up as a WR more than he does a RB



btw...IF Bush was really that great of a RB then they would stop using him at punt return...

and I don't give a damn how great the Vikes o-line is...that team can't pass the ball for sh*t and that would make it hard as hell for any RB.

That doesn't make any sense. If he's the most dangerous punt returner on the team, why not use him there? Maurice Jones-Drew returns punts and kickoffs, does that mean he isn't a great RB?:hammerhead:

Reggie Bush and Mcfadden are both overrated. Both are good, but next to Adrian Peterson they are overrated. AP is like the next great running back. You'd have to be blind or not watch football to see the difference between him and just about everyone else that plays right now. He runs like a horse with ridiculous burst. And he does it while they stack the line with 8 man fronts.

Mcfadden is like Michael Bush almost. Both big long backs. Except it seems like Mcfadden is more of a poohsee.

Reggie Bush is good, but he gets probably the most opportunities out of any player in the league. Even then he didn't do much last year even tho like 3/4's of that offense was based around getting him the ball.

happens all the time...

in fact Peterson himself was used as a return man at the begining of his rookie year...once they figured out how great he is they stopped useing him there.

I am sure that the Charger's "most dangerous" return man is LT...

any Dallas fan would tell you that for the past 5 years Terence Newman is our best return man...yet we RARELY used him at PR at all because we didn't want him to get hurt. Newman broke Kansas State records as a punt returner....he is a bad ass to say the least. Adam Jones may be better now but we can afford to lose him.

But what about Jones-Drew?

And the reason they don't use Peterson returning punts is because he goes all out every play and is injury prone enough just running the ball. He still returns kicks and punts sometimes, when they need him too.

Just because the Cowboys don't use their best return man doesn't mean every other team doesn't.

well Marion Barber and AP are differnet players. Marion Barber is a complete power back and is too slow to return kicks. Although Chester Taylor might be faster than AP, AP would have a greater chance to break it for 6. He can get yardage after contact

Saints should cut Gramatica and wait til the Giants release either John Carney who hasn't missed a FG this year or sign another

You would take Ronnie Brown over LT and AD?

It really isn't as far fetched as someone would think, this the same player who lead the NFL in rushing last year but got injured. Definitely a top RB.

The punt returns were nice, but Bush didn't do shit offensively for the Saints. He fumbled twice and only ran for 29 yards. Any team started with him needs another player to be the power back to get the hard yards that Bush is incapable of getting. He's a nice weapon, but you don't start a team with him.

Of course Peterson rushed for a scintillating 32 yards on 21 carries (to a defense that had given up 91, 96, and 82 yards to Earnest Graham, Clinton Portis, and Frank Gore respectively). Also, it's hard to count one of those fumbles considering Bush's head was turned about 90 degrees via the grabbing of the facemask (and you'd be hardpressed to say he didn't make up for it as he single handily kept the Saints in the game last night).

Reggie pretty much did everything he could to help the Saints win. At the end of the day the Saints jsut arent good enough.

he caught 7 passes for 58 yards, which keeps the defense honest so that Deuce can get going when he's healthy.
