    Maybe not for a Pizza Hut pizza, but I think I would if I was really hungry and maybe there was some beer involved.

    Wow, this guy is showing me NOTHING! 2.9 yards/carry!!!!!!!

    Reggie would be better if they used him correctly: the way he was used in New Orleans.

    Reggie wanted to prove that he was an every down back. The Dolphins, a team that no coach or player wanted to go to this season, had to tell Reggie he would be an every down back just to get him to agree to come here. Maybe the next regime will use him better.

    Meat lovers? Just kidding. I wish we'd use him more like we were in preseason, shot gun, motion him out, get the mis-match, have him running drags, slants, swing patterns.

    To my memories of when I still had hope for this team, offense, and Chad Henne.

    It's killing me man...when he threw that deep ball to Gates down the sideline, about 3 yards out of bounds, I yelled at the TV "KEEP THE F*&CKING BALL IN THE FIELD OF PLAY" ... that's about the 7th or 8th deep sideline route this year he has just thrown out of bounds by a wide margin..
    And I had so much hope..

    Yep. This is a double study on what is wrong with the Dolphins. First, they overvalued what Reggie brought to the table and completely misevaluated his ability to be a feature runner. This is on Jeff Ireland, who has made many more mistakes like this. This mistake is compounded by the fact that they are severely overpaying him for what he can do. The second mistake is on the coaching staff, as they have not utilized the talent that Reggie does bring to the table. The guy is a space player. Get him the ball out in space, use him in the passing game, and use him on some jet sweeps. He is never going to be an in between the tackles runner.

    Like I said, the Reggie Bush acquisition and what they have done with him on the field shows you that the problem lies in both the front office and the coaching staff.

    How much does a Reggie Bush jersey cost???? How many Reggie Bush jerseys have been sold????

    Hard to make an accurate judgement without all the information.

    Obviously had on "I HATE HENNE" glasses. That football would have landed IN BOUNDS or right around the sideline marker! It was a beautiful pass. What went wrong on the play is Gates did NOT get any separation and got pushed out of bounds b/c he doesn't have the physical presence to maintain position. Gates was out of bounds on the left and had to lean in bounds to his right. GREAT pass, poor position established by WR.

    Gates did show good hands in catching the ball, but needs to work on positioning.

    This looks like something you'd see on FinHeaven.

    I stated before the season that Bush wasn't really that good. I was told I was wrong in my assessment of Bush. I am still waiting for him to prove me wrong, but so far he is making me look like a genius.

    Reggie Bush is good at sweeps,screen plays, and punt returns.Memo to coaching staff,he is not so great between the tackles.

    I dont blame reggie, i blame the dumb coaches, who seem to lack the brain cells to come up with what will work for reggie. This guy is a matchup nightmare, if we just threw him all over the field, it would help us in a number of ways. Plus, hes a very good downfield blocker.

    Well, Reggie Bush used correctly would add to the offense. That said, Reggie Bush shouldn't have ever been a consideration for the team given his track record in New Orleans. Not when there were other guys in the draft and free agents like Ahmad Bradshaw out there.
