People call him a bust but he took a huge part for the Saints super bowl run especially in the playoffs and you can never take that away from him.
on a technical term he didn’t produce as his draft position would suggest so he in that sense is a bust but he played a integral part for that SB run so at least he has a ring.
@@elvintran9620 "on a technical term he didn’t produce as his draft position would suggest "
Except, even by that standard, I don't think that's true. Pro football reference's career value metric has him 19th among all #2 picks since the 1970 merger. That puts him ahead of 24 retired players (and a few guys who are still active, and unlikely to pass him, like RG3).
So even by the standard of 2nd overall pick, you're about as likely to get a guy who was worse than Bush as opposed to better.
@Costa Zambaras Look, I wasn't calling him a great player. And their are certainly better players than him who don't get this kind of treatment (Sproles, as you point out, is one. I've always loved Eric Metcalf). So you have a point.
Bush wasn't a great player. He was, at his best, very good, but probably really just a good, solid, player.
The issue I have with calling him a "bust" is that, while you certainly get superstars with the second overall pick, you also get guys who are absolute and total non-contributors.
Put another way: Suppose I gave you two options.
You either get the career of Bush, or another player who was drafted at #2, chosen via a random number generator.
Would you take your chances, or take Bush? .
@@ZachB1988 He wasn't a bust though. Busts don't start for that long, don't become key pieces to a team, and they almost never get a ring. He had a respectable career.
Not a bust
Ironically he’d be the perfect back in today’s nfl
Unlimited Power rare case when a player gets drafted "too early". He would basically be what Kamara/Barkley/CMC are today. Same thing could be said for Tebow. He would be a better Taysom Hill if drafted today.
@Slatternly Skaghalter yeah Reggie did have some good hands
How does this comment have so many likes, when the best back's in today's NFL are Ezekiel Elliott, saquon Berkeley, Derrick Henry, & Todd Gurley??🤔 ... All complete opposite of Reggie Bush haa ha SMH.. 🥴🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
JordanLeeBrown you named Zeke and gurley but not CMC? 💀
Saints started this whole thing. That's why you see it commonly now.
So underrated during his time in Miami and Detroit, didn’t live up to the unimaginable hype but got a ring and had some good seasons. Grew up watching this gun run amok in LA
Harry Engel he wasn’t as effective in NO as he was in college and preformed much better outside the Saints.
Elvin Tran Bush had more rushing yards in Det and Mia but his biggest success came in New Orleans
Totally agree
Harry Engel New Orleans had the running back by committee style even worse than today. Reggie never got a chance to get consistent carries
That Fresno State game.......SMDH!!
A college national champion, Heisman winner, & a Super Bowl champion, wow what a career he has had!
And high school state champion
And a saints hall of famer
"By the way, don't kick to Reggie Bush right now."
They just never listen.
3kmek got close to another one after that one, but loss his footing while make a move
This guy was a living highlight reel in college
One of the best
My pick for an all time cfb team
The greatest cfb player of all time
I was in college(on the East Coast) and would stay in on Saturday nights to watch USC play, and it seemed as if every time he touched the ball, he gained at least twenty yards.
@@znhait right, and that was a time before internet so he was like a football myth at his time in USC. He really was ahead of his time tho, cuz I feel like he could have been an elite RB in today's nfl
@@kingezy6222 there was internet back then lol. Just wasn't any social media like today. Bush was one of the first players to have his highlight reel on youtube.
I never realized he had that many punt return tds
New Orleans Reggie Bush was Sick with it, Dem Punt Returns was fire.. Detroit Reggie Bush was tight too..
Same here! He was one of the great punt returners of all-time!
I forgot he had two punt returns for TDs against my Vikes🤣 He seemed to love scoring long TDs against us on whatever team he was playing for haha
He’s one of the best receiving backs i’ve seen played this game
You should see more...
#facts
Alvin kamara?
Only 2 plays were run plays; the other eight were long receptions. He would be way more valuable today than he was in 2000's.
Marshall Faulk literally lined up at wr. He ran routes better than most wr. Catching screens and dump offs isn’t considered a true receiving back
1:34 those blocks
Beautiful.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe those are allowed in today's NFL. Sad if that's the case.
Almost killed the man
At the same dam time😂
I truly miss that
Unbelievable. The perfect return formation.
Would've been perfect for this era..think he learned to be patient when he was in Miami. He looked like a true RB there far as allowing holes to develop.
I feel like he just gained weight and stopped running laterally
That and didn’t dance as much
Every nfl throwback vid
Comments: He was so underrated
Ruben Krishna I agree that people always say that, but I think you could pretty easily make the case that he’d be a very good back in today’s NFL. Ahead of his time
Not HoF, but damn good
Harry Engel I know but people like Herschel walker if you look at the stats werent
The definition of underrated is not Reggie Bush. He was definitely overrated early on after being a Heisman trophy winner and number 2 pick overall. He was very good in the NFL, but nowhere near the hype did he meet expectations. I'm a huge fan as a Saints fan though. Glad he got in the Saint's Hall of fame.
@@fluid_thoughts2782 If he had stayed in his own britches, he could have lived up to the hype in the long run. Keep returning kicks, stay with the Saints as a hybrid. His career would have been huge.
@@democratbullshit6964 not really. He had more rush yards away from the saints. Alvin Kamara is much better at what reggie was suppose to be for the saints. Reggie still was a beast, just not worth a 2 pick overall.
We dont win sb 44 without bush. And for that he isnt a bust in my eyes. Thanks brother!
He wasn’t a bust period.
No where close to a bust
@@mxl_reps_951 many consider him to be because of the hype. But hes damn fine in my book.
Hate that run he had down in Miami when he jumped like 5 yards down the side like for the TD wasn’t on this! But so many great plays, loved him when he was a Saint
1:34 is poetry in motion
So beautiful. The second guy got cracked before the first guy that got decleated had even landed.
You see how fast Brian Urlacher was running on that last play? 👀 He was right behind Reggie until he realized he had a step on him n saw he wasn't catching up.
Urlacher was an athlete! He was actually a converted linebacker in college, and they still played him at safety, receiver and he returned kicks.
Reggie Bush has inspired me to play football
Absolute studd. He was that good. Multiple position players are what its all about. People making plays. He cant control the whole offense but if you give him the ball and space its over. Running, catching, and returning kicks. People still hate. Unreal.
Reggie Bush was versatile and had amazing speed. NFL scouts knew when he was at USC that he would succeed at the next level.
Was a college legend n did his thang n da NFL 💯🔥
always fun to watch, was happy to have him in a Lions jersey for bit there.
This dude was so fun to watch during his college days. Dude was literally a threat to score everytime he touched the ball
did the ref really throw a flag for sliding in the end zone smh
D G Yes. Remember that short stint they tried to add where they were penalizing “excessive” end zone celebrations? Too many damn rules in the NFL now days. 🤦🏽♂️
Smh...the ref is a clown for throwing a flag over a slide. I thought it was funny and harmless after a long ass TD run
No fun league.... NFL
Reggie didn’t live up to the crushing expectations (who could’ve? He was basically Michael Jordan as a running back in college), but he still pioneered the current era of several dynamic receiving RBs.
Reggie came in the league a star and made big time plays, but they always criticized him for "not running between the tackles"... he had great breakaway speed and crazy elusiveness... i wish they just let him make more plays in space
that didn’t give him fair share in the beginning at running back bro , he did his thing with miami and detroit !!
Not Detroit but yes Miami the reason he did not get used as much in the saints is cause we had
Pierre Thomas and deuce McAllister and duece was really good and Pierre was really underated if people wonder why we did not use reggie as much as we would have
@@fadedjdean6546 yeah i think if he would’ve been used more in the beginning , he could’ve been better , he running inside and out
@kingrell Yeah I totally agree but The only thing I hate about Reggie bush highlights is the fact that everyone in the comments argues over if he was better on Miami Detroit and the Saints but everybody Should know that he will always be the best when he was on USC And that’s coming from a Saints fan
Ahead of his time. He’s like Alvin Kamara or run CMC
Hmmm. But Bush was not an every down back.
AllPro777 could’ve been his years in Miami and Detroit kinda showed he was more skilled and should have been used better by the saints
@@AllPro777 the way hitting has change he wouldve been an every down back
I love Reggie...hes such a nice guy and so much fun to watch. He's a special human being. GIVE HIM HIS HEISMAN BACK ALREADY!!!!!
Would’ve been a beast if he was on the Chiefs today.
Yea
I'm scared of KC if he's on KC in, 2018
One of the most underrated running backs ever! His explosive and talented skills would’ve been a top pick in today’s league! I’m glad I got to see and witness his greatness! #RB25
FYI, Alvin Kamara is Reggie Bush 2.0!
Truly underrated! Even tho he never lived up to the hype he was drafted at, he had a very productive career. He was also the best player in ncaa 07 lol
Bush & LT best backs to me from the later 00's
YO!! That block though!!! 1:34
Still one of my favorite backs of all time.
Reggie Reggie Reggie!!!!! Man this guy was a big influence on me I worked #5 because of him He will always be my favorite player this guy is my idol truly one of a kind. I’m glad I got to witness him playing.
Missed his era definitely would’ve been great in this era
Reggie bush was always the most exciting player in football when healthy
One of my fav players
One of my all time saints favorite . Played big role on the Super Saints
Dude said "fleur de LEAP" for Reggie Bush's flip omg so good hahaha
One of my favorites players if he didn’t go to the saints and actually was treated as the number one back he would’ve had more thousands yards season but on top of that at least he has a ring
I swear bro it was like the only time he got the ball is when the entire stadium knew he was getting the ball. It was the most obvious situations
Is that hate towards the saints?
He definitely was NOT a bust at all but I think he would have had a better NFL career as a wide receiver. Strong enough as a wide receiver, fast enough, good enough hands, dangerous in open field, and he would have avoided a lot of contact/injuries at wide receiver. There's no way to tell, but maybe even Hall of Fame in my opinion.
Good career. Would've thrived in this era. He finally figured out how to slow down and find holes as a RB when he was in Miami. Was great to see.
Top 20 most explosive players in NFL history and #1 in college. I hate USC. Been an Oregon fan all my life but I never denied he was my favorite player to watch in college.
This guy would be INCREDIBLE...in todays NFL.
Greatest Barry Sanders Detroit Lions play is 1991 NFC divisional playoffs against Dallas Cowboys 🏈
I concur
Totally irrelevant
more videos of reggie bush!!! please!!!
1:49 my mans breakin' ankles. Somebody stop that man. XD
Bush was no bust. He had a really good nfl career. As a fellow socal guy im appreciative of Bush
Man if he came in a few years later he would have dominated in the modern NFL!
One of the best college back of all time. NFL may not have jad the best packages for him, wish he could have been more consistent. At least he earned a ring.
Bush would be so deadly in today’s nfl
This dude would catch, look up field, find a hole and change gears lmao. You can see that second speed kick in
Such a football icon
That block at 1:34 would have killed this return in todays league... Regardless Bush was straight lightning!!
Reggie was the first RB I feel in love with no homo ! This man can take everyone’s ankles
30 percent of these plays were against the Vikings....coming from a Vikings fan RIP
Guess they got there revenge in 2018 coming from a saints fan RIP
Bro had 10,017 all purpose yards with 58 total touchdowns and got him a ring . He’s a Hall of Famer IMO 🤷🏾♂️
Long distance!!! Enjoying these videos showing just how great some players are and probably were underappreciated until now
I remember when people were talking about this dude as a number 1 pick overall in the draft smh. I wouldnt call him a bust, but he definitely didnt live up to the hype.
He would be a monster in today's pass happy NFL. Bush was ahead of his time
Reggie was a walking highlight reel
Best video quality that I've seen from anyone on RUclips for play #1..
Always loved that run from Reggie
He may never be a HOF but he was an excellent RB and a game breaker
Thanks for the memories Reggie. Saints wouldn't have won it all in 09 without you. Fun fact...we didn't score again in that Bears game after you pointed at Urlacher on that long TD 😂
On the 5th play he juked that dude out and didn’t even slow down
At 1:35 that fkn block for reggie he leveled dude lol
Reminds me of Eric Metcalf..Very exciting player to watch...
Good comp. Both good players robbed by circumstances and injuries
“Bust” lol, legend
Reggie Bush was a stone cold beast! Injuries took a toll on his body, but still had a solid NFL career.
Reggie Bush, David Meggett,Kevin Faulk,Shane Vereen,James White my favorite receiving backs all time
Man he was so RAW 🔥
Back in the day on franchise mode in madden I’d change his position to WR and it would make him like a 93. Always a great slot WR for me, he would run past people on long routes.
That lineman running side by side with him on that first highlight was the most impressive part of that play
I loved Watching Reggie Bush.
Devin Hester my man but Bush also a Beast 💪
The crack back at 1:34👀😩😫😤
Sucks USC lost that bowl game against Vince Young & Texas. Hella of a game but i felt it most for Reggie. He was carrying that team every year. Most exciting college player iv ever seen
He was a good player in the NFL and had a decent career, even though he wasn't the star that his performances in college raised expectations that he'd become. With the Saints, he was used as a hybrid running-back wide receiver, and he additionally had many injuries. His two seasons with the Dolphins and his first season with the Lions did prove that he could be a feature back. He had 1086, 986, and 1006 rushing yards on 216, 227, and 223 carries for 5.0, 4.3, and 4.5 yards per carry average and scored a total of 7, 8, and 7 touchdowns in those seasons, playing 15, 16, and 14 games. Thereafter, his last three seasons were mostly injury riddled and it was very sad that he actually finished with negative yards, though he had just 12 total rushing attempts in 13 games and he was very much second fiddle to LeSean McCoy.
Anyway, Bush is a Super Bowl winner, and he played an important role in the Saints offense in the way Sean Payton decided that he should play and did so competently, despite his injury struggles, especially in his last year with the Saints.
Reggie Bush wasn't and probably couldn't be the in-between tackles in-traffic rusher of the likes of Adrian Peterson that many hoped he would be - that was never even his style in the first place - because he's actually a guy of naturally smaller stature than he. At 195 to 205 pounds, Bush though still very lean and muscular, should actually be at least twenty pounds lighter than he is.
Oh you didn't include the hit by Sheldon Brown.
The Sentinel well that would be in the 10 shortest Reggie Bush runs.
619 San Diego Baby 💯🏆✅👌🏾
Those blocks at 1:33 would've taken the points off the board today
Those blocks at 1:33 was crucial. Omg🤯
One of Daygo's finest..
Mt. Helix Stand Up!
We got a lot of them
I remember I was like 10 and had him on my Fantasy team when he got the 2 returns in one game
He had one in the playoffs 09’ against the Cardinals.. crazy!
Reggie bush is one of the most talented athletes of all time. Not just in football, in all of sports
Fleur da leep is one of the greatest calls in announcing history. ⚜️⚜️⚜️
From then til now California still houses America’s high school football champions. The Trinity League in SoCal is the SEC of highschool football 😅
Looking back you realize he had a lot of big time plays
Saints forever we should have never let you go !!!!!
Would be cool if you did a complete highlight for him.
One of the best to ever do it...
That hit against the eagles and he was never the same after that
Over 9k yds rushing and receiving and 65 total tds including playoffs. Pretty damn good career.
I wonder what kinda career Bush would of had if the saints used him more instead of using a running back by committee, I mean they really had some rb name Pierre Thomas starting over him 🤦🏻♂️. Used him more as a decoy and gadget plays.
He was ahead of his time , see how they used Kamara now a days imagine Reggie with that many touches (if stayed healthy of course).
Would of loved to see him go to another team who wasn’t pass first but hey he at least got a chip but won’t go down as a great. My all time favorite running back.
Pierre Thomas was no slouch. He was the heart of the team. Imo.
Mark Magellan 37 agree but over Reggie fucking Bush c’mon now that’s like Christian mcaffree behind Latviious Murray
Andy Garcia I was in elementary but I remember Pierre Thomas being better than Reggie
My favourite running back of all time. WHO DAT!
They should advertise 1:34 in a sanitizer commercial to demonstrate how it "blocks" the Corrona Virus 😂
I like to think in an alternate universe, he finds a home after detroit/miami and made his way up in the yards from scrimmage leaderboard. Dude had some gifts
Some will remember, the hit in Philadelphia I believe changed his life...youtube it lol
Once upon a time he was the best, or potentially the best
