Jones-Drew better than Reggie Bush - Page 6

Lendale White is very good. He is going to have another good year. He can run on almost any front. Three to eight.

Every time someone proves you wrong you come back with we'll see this year. For once I would love to see a decent come back post from you. Your all on how amazing LenDale is and all you say is he's faced 8-man fronts all year. You make sound as if he's running against the Steel Curtain and he's not. As everyone has said we don't think White is bad we would take MJD over him and I'm pretty sure MJD doesn't need Fred Taylor considering the 2 years MJD has played MJD has 24 TD's to Fred Taylor's 11(Including Rec. TD's).

Actually, I don't think LenDale is that good at all. Average at best. I'd take MJD over LenDale any day of the week and twice on Sundays.

That's not a good argument?

LenDale faced 8-9 man fronts all year, almost every down.

LenDale had to work with the 27th best pass offense in the NFL.

LenDale had to carry the offense by himself.

MJD was facing 6-7 man fronts all year

MJD had the 14th best passing offense behind him

MJD had Fred Taylor to wear down the defense and come in as a change of pace back.

Sounds like a pretty solid argument... now I'm not saying LenDale is better than MJD, he could be, but they are totally different backs and are in totally different situations. I would take LenDale over MJD anyday, unless I already had someone like LenDale or Taylor in the backfield, MJD cannot carry the load by himself.

LenDale White had one of the best defenses in the league. And lets not forget Vince Young running for TD`s in almost every game. Vince Young got to the goal line and White finshed them of. H.e didn`t do everything by himself

VY had THREE rushing TD's last year, so lets just throw that one right out the window.

What does the defense have to do with LenDale running the ball?

scarletbolt21 · 06-08-2008, 12:08 PM

Well it maters if your playing the Jets defense instead of the Patriots defense.

Keep going....

Are you saying one had an easier schedule than the other?

scarletbolt21 · 06-08-2008, 04:21 PM

I`m not saying that but it matters which defenses your playing.

wickedhacker · 06-12-2008, 07:41 AM

MJD is better. Is this even a question? First there are the stats. Not even close. Next is playing style, MJD is dangerous on the outside and up the middle. Bush will only go outside and goes down most times at initial contact. MJD is just more physical, and is highly underrated as a pass catcher as well.

MJD all the way!!!

RajunCajuns613 · 06-18-2008, 05:38 PM

White will be batterered around a few more years and stay mediocre.

Ooo, low blow!

i would like to think so

If you took Lendale ahead of MJD you would have made a big mistake IMO Lendale has had many opportunities to be the hero in Tenn and has not capitalized as of yet.

MJD is far superior to Reggie Bush so far in their young careers. Does it really matter why? Next couple of years will tell?

Bush was the most over-rated player in the NFL with VY a close 2nd.
