I disagree! How many times was Ben Sacked again? Where was Bell to block or where was Bell for the dump off? Sure couldn't ask TATE to do that with 1 week of practice.
I cant count how many times I said DAMN BELL IS GOOD last year! I think we can all say the same thing sometimes when Bush gets the ball in the open field and if he can block then BONUS!
Early reports are stating Vereen will want 4 million and Bush can be had for 2million. If that true then lets get this guy signed!
I honestly don't care who we sign but to me I don't want to change our gameplan to fit the guy we sign. We did that last year and it didn't work with Blount.
Haley runs a certain offense and we need to find a back that fits into that scheme so if there is a better and cheaper fit I'm all for it but I sure don't want the Steelers to spend and entire training camp trying to make 1 RB fit in for just 1 or 2 games.
Much rather have a plug n play solution so we don't skip a beat as we do have the toughest schedule and could open up vs the champs in week 1. Will Reggie be in a Patriots uniform that week instead?
Very true. AB looks stoned all the time.
However how many NFL vets know where and when to smoke it? It was a dumb move and having more veteran leadership isn't a bad thing. We didn't sign Blount for his leadership nor did we sign him to be bell. We tried the Bettis and Parker approach and that doesn't work under Haley. Check now let's get it right and get Bush.
and there it is
bash the steelers, praise the pats
sound familiar?
I am to lazy to see if the ones arguing with you want a "veteran" OLB signed. But I see no problem with the veteran Bush AT THE RIGHT PRICE. He does have a nice fit for Haley's offense. But I have to disagree with the notion we need a STARTING caliber RB for 2 games. We need a back up RB period. The game plan will have to be different no matter the back up RB IMO.
I should rephrase because you are correct.
we need a backup running back who is CAPABLE of starting if and only if needed. That still weighs in the favor of Bush over Help IMO.
