Bush says knee is fine, he's over the injury

That's good, and maybe a little scary. Is it possible he's just not very instinctive? He's missing reads and overrunning plays, but not in the way Shazier did. Ryan also made a ton of explosive plays and TFL and would force the ball carrier to other tacklers when he missed.

Bush is just getting blocked out of the way and caught up in the wash. This is called out in multiple draft profiles. He's a heat seeking missile when he has a target lined up, but doesn't read keys well.

Light better come on quick or this will have been their biggest draft blunder I can remember.

He didn't look good before the injury.

 

Too early to tell much from the 2020 draft, but if they stayed pat in 2019 they could have had Montez Sweat (or Noah Fant) and DK Metcalf.

 

Disagree, Loved the way he looked his rookie year. He just didn't take that next step his 2nd year before he was injured.

This year I see him standing beside the ball carrier after someone else has made the tackle way to often. His rookie year he would have been on the ground with the ball carrier helping someone make the tackle. He is just not flying to the ball like a madman as he did in his rookie year.

Maybe he needs to bring back the PonyTail Turd to get his mojo back.

 

So he's claiming the injury is fine, so then his below average play is all between the ears. Great.

Lets see how he fares against a power running team in the clowns. Schobert as well.

Traded up 10 spots to get him. He has not lived up to that for sure.

 

If he's the next Timmons he won't be worth three draft picks. You spend that much draft capital on a LB he'd better be the next Urlacher or Ray-Ray.

 

Dig that Hanging thing in Your avatar. What are those called...it's at the tip of my tongue, but I can't remember...My head is buzzing with 2 much coffee this morning. Anyway it's really cool.

 

With still no Tuitt coming, we need some splash from Mr. Bush and Mr. Fitzpatrick, turnovers would really help us out. We haven't been that turnover machine defense like we were the last 2 seasons.

 

I always thought Timmons got a lot of flack for no reason. I was always a person who thought He was better than most did.
Did He have weaknesses...Yes , but so do all players.

 

Solid player, I wasn't slighting him. You just don't trade up and spend 3 picks on a solid guy.

 

Jarvis Jones says hi.

But yeah, Bush’s lackluster play is definitely concerning. Maybe the injury is okay physically, but he hasn’t cleared the mental hurdle yet? You can think you’re all good, but still subconsciously, be hesitant.

 

He only cost one draft pick, misses happen.

 

Fair enough. The trade up does make it sting more. Hopefully he can get things rolling soon.

 

I would be fine with Bush's play if he were a 5th round pick. The problem is he was the 10th overall pick in the draft and we traded 3 picks to move up 10 spots to grab him.

 

He’s gots to be better. He was a monster in school but This Sunday , the run man cometh! Eyes are on you.

 

It's stained glass. My ex made it for me some years ago.

 

It's cool

 

You don't remember the game NOAH FANT played like 12 for 150 being guarded exclusively by Bush

 

Was this a Madden game you played?
No Game against Denver in 2019
Played Denver in 2020 and Noah Fant had a total of 4 catches all game.
Played Denver in 2021 and Noah Fant had a total of 3 catches all game.

 

You have heard the old saying, that's water under the bridge. Or woulda, shoulda, coulda.

 

I’m not very good art wise. Non the less, I got dragged off by my wife to a pottery making place. You were allowed to take wine, so I agreed. I picked out and paid for a large bowl that I thought would be great for popcorn, etc. I decided to put the Steeler logo in the bottom and speckled the rest of the bowl with the 3 colors. Being an engineer and a nerd, I meticulously laid out the hypocyloids, drew them in super fine pencil and painted them very slowly with a very fine brush. It looks great. First time I pulled it out for a steelers party I proudly showed it to my friends.

One buddy promptly pointed out I had painted it with the red and yellow reversed.

 

Hahaha. That's freaking great. LoL.

 

They're hypocycloids

 

Towards the end of his time when constant restructures were making his base pay ballon out of proportion to perceived production he was being picked on by fans because of the money. A point he was out a game and Vwill was the back up and played out of his mind and fans were like see this guy has 10 tackles and 2 pass break ups for way less money and is younger. The difference between he and Timmons was Timmons tackles were at the LOS or behind it and Vinces were 8-10 yards past the LOS. Like anything if you just got paid fans want next level production and if they don't see it then you are on the list

 

It’s not out of the question that he can still improve and become a top player. He is less than 12 months after a serious injury, even if he says he is fine he may not be fully physically recovered.

If he doesn’t improve between now and the end of the season do you pick up his option?
