Isn't your point that you need a big power back to get those hard yards?
Also, if you are being serious with the first part of that you'd seem to invalidate any football point you could ever make by talking about what Faulk did with Bert Jones who retired in 1982 and the Baltimore Colts who moved in 83 when Marshall was 6 or 7 years old.
It was no more Faulk's fault they weren't winning in Indy when he was there than it was Corey Dillon's fault he wasn't winning in Cincy.
That's what I'm saying... but nobody wants to listen. They all just look at his USC profile where it says he's 6', 200 whereas he's at least 210 now and will keep working out. His game is as complete as it gets.Patriot Missile said:All this talk of Bush being a 3rd down back is ludicrous. This kid has the chance to be something really special. Although no draftpick is a sure thing, he certainly shows that special kind of gamebreaking ability that comes around every 10 years or so. Let me get this straight,someone mentioned because he is only 6'0 200pds he can't be a every down back? Someone try telling that to Barry Sanders who was only 5'8 200pds coming out of college.
No, I am not saying Bush is going to be Sanders,but they were both extremely gifted athletes coming out of college. We will see this coming season what Bush is all about,but I'd be willing to wager he will be much better than a 3rd down back with or without an offensive line.
