I started noticing that they criticize alot, when Reggie Bush first came to the league. Coming out of USC, there were alot of expectations from him. Some of the things that were expected of him were not done. That's because he is different from everybody else in his own way. He never played in every game in every season due to knee injuries, but always made a comeback and did good.
This year, sports analysts criticized him and stated that, "he can't run between the tackles," meaning that he don't have the body and power to make full contact with defenders. These analysts expect everybody to be the same, like they expect Adrian Peterson to be the same as LaDainian Tonlinson (LT). Unfortunately, that's never going to happen because they are both different. There will never be another LT, like there is never going to be another Barry Sander, Walter Peyton or Peyton Manning.
Reggie Bush is a finesse running back or a scat back so he's going to look to make defenders miss because that's his running style. There is no one in the league today who has the cutback speed juke/cut moves or athleticism as Bush does. These sports analysts needs to stop looking at what Bush can't do and start looking at what he has done, what he's doing and what he will do.
