The only reason Bush has a ring is because the sAints cheated by implementing a bounty program. That ring sould be on Adrian Peterson’s finger instead.

Leaving Miami for Detroit AND going back to being a decoy….Bummer.

What defense? We don’t need no frickin defense.

Reggie Bush was Miami’s best offensive player & it makes no sense to let him walk like they did. Bush is a superstar as long as he can remain healthy. However, historically Reggie Bush performs much better on grass than artificial turf.

As a Saints fan I can offer a translation: “We will give him the ball and he will sprint straight out of bounds, usually for a loss.”

Leshoure was coming off an Achilles year. We have yet to see him at 100 percent. But maybe he is just ordinary. Hope not.

They’ll use him exactly like they used Best, with the exception of now having power runners alongside him unlike when Best was healthy. No need for any other playbook but their own.

Who tells Jim Rome anything?

Good, as a Vikings fan i wasn’t real worried to begin with, now I’m not at all. The Dolphins used Bush as well as you can. The Saints barely used him at all. Its nice being in a division where all you have to worry about is Forte, if he’s playing. Too bad we’re the only one without a qb.

Hey, I’m being honest. Good luck trying to get Reggie Bush to be as dominate as he was in 2009. No ill will or nothing like that.

So does that mean as a training room decoration?

Bush would have had more touches in Miami if not for him fumbling and being injured for a third of the season…there was a reason Bess returned punts…no turnovers. Finz may be 8-8 yearly, but better than 4-12 yearly

Who’s the bigger d bag? Jim Rome (thumbs up) Jim “Know the Rules Harbaugh/What’s that, it’s a rule I can’t throw my red flag?” Schwartz (Thumbs Down)?

The only problem I see with this is the fact the Matt Stafford is no Drew Brees.

Am I the only one that thinks Leshoure is the opposite of explosive? If he’s getting the bulk of the carries, the Lions run game is still going to be garbage.

Did the Lions steal the Saints’ playbook from 2009 or something? Good luck trying to emulate what Bush did down there.

OLINE all the way…. SIGN MOORE. DRAFT FISCHER or LANE. Drop Dom and insert Nagy. Boom.

Bush got a ring because Brees as QB worked out.

A yard in the lane is worth two in the Bush. Just need to get that lane now.

This makes sense for both sides. The Lions have a crappy run-blocking OL, and as a RB Bush probably wants to have a career beyond the age 28. Reducing the number of hard tackles and hits he takes on running plays will extend his career.

Bush could really be an effective weapon in this offense. It is the defense that concerns me.

To sell tickets, drop screen passes, and be seriously injured and/or fumble on half of the special teams plays where he appears?

Miami will learn that running wins football games. You heard it here first
