    Well, Yea i think you are an idiot if we can just magically take away his good runs. What sense does that make? Seriously come on now. Lets just take away his big runs. :eek:

    Lendale white was running well and they were scoring so why not keep going to him.

    What about his amazing 30 yard run that put USC up 8, that was worthless right?

    I guess it was his fault they could not stop Vince.

    What did Bush average on the Season like 8 yards a carry? Its ok though if we take away his long runs then he only averaged 4ypc.

    Email that to Casserly

    Thanks for this enlightening post. Reggie Bush will not make Carr better, its not like defenses have to key on him or anything.

    i know...he's gale sayers, right? a sure thing? yeah. right. because history has shown us there are such things as sure things. whatever. there's no sure thing. vince isn't a sure thing, either. you've been watching too much USCPN.

    dude...seriously...you got your ass handed to you the last time you doubted vince...you really wanna go that route again?

    If Bush is as good as he appears , our offense will be so good next year if carr can give us anything (a big if). Andre Johnson will be a better player because of bush. It will open up the game so much for him. Andre is a top 5 wr in the nfl with bush.

    What bothers me is that people want him so much because he is from houston and from ut. If everyone is so against Carr and think we need a QB, there would have to be someone arguing for Leinart right? This is not the case. I am not saying he isn't a great player but Vince young is only being talked about because of where he is from

    And yes Bush will get 15 carries for 130 plus yards

    and 5 catches for 70 plus yards

    why do you think that's insignificant??? any business sense at all??? it goes to value of the franchise. it goes to drafting a guy that's adored in the city and the state. save for a few like yourself.

    you admitted to be a vince hater. you were wrong about him before. you admitted he proved you wrong. why are you so convinced you're right about him now? and why should the rest of us be persuaded by your arguments about him given how wrong you were about him before?

    it bothers you because he's a longhorn. period. the end.

    I am not sure what will happen with Vince, i still dont see him dominating in the NFL. But it does not matter what I think, its what the texans think. Reggie Bush is also a great pick for the team and the Business. Yea Vince would put people in the seats initially (as would Bush), but that would come to an end if we don't start winning. You must also remember that there is a large population that wants Bush. Not everyone is for Vince. Both picks make business sense. Reggie makes more football sense.

    Heh.


    I'll try again.... s l o w e r....

    'UT shut down his rushing'

    Proof:

    1. His total rush yards were not impressive with or w/o his one 26 yard run (which I mentioned...read again if you missed it);
    2. He could not break one (and only 1) until Leinart and White opened it up for him;
    3. They ran White because Bush could not run...that's why they 'stayed with him';
    4. That fact that he only had 56 yards on 12 carries is relevant because it shows that he was not helping his team control the ball.


    Now it's your turn to argue how one run of 18, one for 26, and the other 11 rushes for 38 total yards whupped UT.

    Well thats an exaggeration, those would be ridiculous stats. But I would put Bush's future against Vince's?

    bush will never have the "it" locally that young will. never. ever. never. taking young is swinging for the fences. there's no doubt it MIGHT not work out. but if it does, it will change the face of your organization forever.

    You are a lost cause. I am not going to argue with fake stats. You just can't take away whatever runs you want.

    thats why i had the ? after it. Because I had no idea how to do it. We could set some stats that they would each have to hit.

    his points are valid. bush didn't dominate that game. you and others told us that UT was crazy if they thought that they could slow him down. if they thought that they could beat him. you said that crap. not us. it was wrong.

    but those stats would be relevant for other first year QB's for young and for other first year RB's for bush. comparing the two?? i dont' know how you could logically do that.

    What the heck are you talking about? How do you know he will never have "it"? I have season tickets to the Texans and people had Reggie Bush chants going. If he is good, he will have it, it doesn't matter where he was born.

    I was on record saying if i were to bet on the game I would bet the UT moneyline

    Stop trying to punish Bush for his one above average but not great game
