Will Lions Reprise The Reggie Bush We Remember From Saints?
(3/23 12:5 PT)

The Facts:
HC Jim Schwartz told Jim Rome that his plan for Bush goes back to the way Bush was used early in his career as a Saint, rather than the way he was used in the last two seasons in Miami. “Our plan for him is a little bit different than that, maybe going back to a little more the way he was used with the New Orleans Saints,” Schwartz. “We think he can have a greater impact on the game when we give him the ball on his terms, on our terms, rather than running the ball into hard 8 boxes.”  Reported by Profootballtalk.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As PFT's Michael David Smith suggests, the difference between the role Bush has played in those two offenses is significant: In Bush’s two seasons in Miami he averaged 222 carries and 39 catches a season. In Bush’s five seasons in New Orleans he averaged 105 carries and 59 catches a season. Bush has proven in the last two seasons that he can be the primary every-down back in an NFL offense. But he proved before that that he can be a significant threat even when he’s not carrying the ball 200 times a season. And based on Schwartz's comments, that may be the Reggie Bush we see in Detroit in 2013.
