So then you have to change it up again this year.. and the year after.. until you are finally right.

No passing game leaves a team able to stack the box leaving 9 tacklers to beat. Good luck.

I think Reggie has matured a bunch since coming into the league. His running style is much less east west and he holds on to the ball much better. Top RB no, top 5, yes.

Real fans want to see the TEAM win, only fantasy football idiots care about individual stats. By the way, last years leading rusher was on one of the worst teams in the league, is that where you want to be this year?

Get your facts straight. people seem to forget we are going to start a rookie QB. Running game is going to be in full effect this year. Also Bush hopefully we lead the league in yards from scrimmage with how much receiving he will do.

I think the Hulk Hogan gimmick poster needs to be banned.

He has a better chance of leading the league in yards from scrimmage.

Its nice to have goals, but you might want to make them more realistic.

With Foster, Rice, Peterson, McCoy, and Johnson all playing and healthy (hopefully) you arent going to make the top 5.

Top 5 should be more your goal. Its going to be hard to keep up with guys that are horses, and guys that average over 5ypc.

Had a breakout year last year. Leading a league in rushing may be tough but he can certainly be a top 10 RB. This guy has dropped way off the radar. Remember in 06 when everyone laughed after the Texans passed on Bush and Leinart? Seems like such a long time ago now.

However he has the potential to lead the league in all-purpose yards with the amount of screens and HB dumps we will likely throw to em, not to mention if he still returns any punts to inflate his numbers.

He does set the highest goal possible. He leads the league in Hiesmans returned.

I don’t think anyone can challenge that record.

———————————————–

While that was pretty funny, I really think Bush proved something last year. I think he proved he can be an effective lead back when used the right way. Leading the league in rushing is probably not going to happen but he could definitely improve on last year if given the touches. If so, something like 1200 yds 7-8 tds is not out of the question. He has a ton of talent & finally started to put it together last year. He may have 6 years under his belt but they weren’t normal RB years taking tons of hits as a lead back so he should have some tread left on the tires. And while Philbin didn’t run a ton in GB, he also doesn’t have the best QB in the NFL anymore. Instead he has a rookie (who will start) & the best friend a rookie QB can have is a good running game.

People said he could not be a lead rusher and he proved them wrong last year. If he stays healthy he will make big plays all year!

His better days, or lack there of, are far gone.
