Richard Justice says that drafting Mario was not a mistake
Sunday proved that Reggie Bush is nothing special. He had one electrifying 88-yard TD reception. So what. One lucky play means nothing. Who can't go 88 once in a game? Look at what he did the 10 other times he touched the ball. Nothing, that's what.
He rushed four times for 19 yards and caught six passes for 45 yards. Those numbers won't win you many games. Let's face it, I'd rather have Mario Williams roaring around the end, making quarterbacks uncomfortable.
Vince Young? Same thing. His 66.7 QB rating was 30th in the NFL. He was way behind 15th-ranked David Carr. He even threw more interceptions than Carr and had almost 100 fewer attempts.
I didn't realize that Vince and Reggie were only playing one season, Richard.
Even if they all were just playing one season, let's see...
Vince helped turn around a struggling team once they got rid of the chump taking snaps.
Reggie took a while to get his bearings and became a serious threat, making other teams adjust.
Mario... well, Patricia Slade needed the money for attorneys.
