The Facts:
Bush saw his playing time reduced on Sunday after a fumble against the Steelers. But HC Jim Schwartz says he did not bench Bush for fumbling.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Despite Bush himself saying after the game that he thought his fumble was the reason he was benched, Schwartz said today that Bush’s benching “had nothing to do with” the fumble. Instead, Schwartz said it was all about playing the running back whose style is best suited for the wet, rainy conditions in Pittsburgh, and that’s Joique Bell. Schwartz said Bush does his best work when he can cut on a dime on a good surface, and that on a wet day he’d rather have a straight-ahead runner like Bell carry the load in the running game. “Reggie in horse racing wouldn’t be called a mudder. He’s an explosively quick guy. He’s better on a fast track,” Schwartz said. Either way, expect Bush to be back in the lead role this week.
