Success didn’t spoil Reggie Bush. Even after an impressive performance in his first home game as a Dolphin last Friday night against Carolina, Bush was once again the last man on the practice field Monday.

Afterward, Bush took the podium for his third interview of training camp and offered his unequivocal support of quarterback Chad Henne, who also had a strong showing against the Panthers.

“I thought Chad played well,” Bush said. “I’ve been saying since I got here, day one, Chad’s got the tools. It’s just fine-tune those tools, just like we all have to do. I saw some great things from Chad from Day One, and he has the mechanics, he has the tool, and this offense is going to do wondrous things for his career … I’m looking forward to him putting up another great performance.”


After sitting out the Atlanta pre-season opener, Bush accounted for 81 yards on 11 touches, rushing eight times for 48 yards and catching three passes for another 33 _ all in one half of play. Widely expected to get only 7-10 touches a game this season, he looked more like a feature back, running frequently between the tackles.
Bush said he enjoys that aspect “because I get to get up field quicker rather than (on) the outside tosses. Inside, you make one guy miss and you can be gone, you know, 50, 60 yards.”

Asked if he’s tempted to bounce a run outside where he can use his speed more, Bush replied, “It’s not so much the temptation, it’s more I just try to focus on taking what the defense gives me. So not really forcing, bouncing runs outside, more just when it’s there, it’s there, that’s when you take it. But for the most part I try to do a good job hitting the ball up the field and set them up to bounce the ball outside.”

With two pre-season games yet to play _ and five more practice sessions before game-week preparations begin for the opener against New England _ Bush said the Dolphins still need all the time they can get.

“I don’t think as a team we we’re ready to start the season, and as a running back I don’t think I’m ready yet.

There’s a lot I need to work on; I’ve only played one pre-season game. I’ve had a lot of practice time with the team, but being out here in game situations is a lot different. So I definitely have a long ways to go and hopefully this next game I will get a bulk of play, to get a chanceto build on and fine-tune my tools.”

Hey man gotta love him being positive and supporting his QB! LETS GO PHINS!
 
With all do respect, Reggie has not closely watched Chad's last two seasons......so I really don't give his eval of Chad much merit. But it sounds positive anyway.
 
He's doing what Brandon Marshall should have all along, also with most fans, stand behind the guy whether you think he's the best guy for the job or not. As of right now he's the starting qb of our beloved dolphins might as well support him and hope he gains confidence and produces if not then his time a starter will soon be over.
 
I think I saw him roll his eyes though, which we all know means he hates Henne.
 
I hope Reggie becomes a captain this season along with Henne, Dansby, and Taylor.

Really? with all due respect? more like with all due negativity and agenda. I think I'd trust reggie bush's evaluation who's worked with one of the best in the game over the last few years, and now has worked with chad.
 
The more I read, the more I love the pick-up of Reggie Bush.
 
the best thing about that carolina game we saw henne do things we never saw, throw on the run, that blew my mind

Boy no kidding, that was a poor statement . . . a statement of hatred and biast to the "negative" perception that some have of Chad Henne when it should be somewhat positive that your free agent RB gives the current QB alot of props for the job he is doing this offseason. Forget the fact that Reggie has shown that he is a tremendous worker and worked with one of the great QB's in the game right now . . . the guy sees Henne everyday, the guy has probably watched more extensive film in the past few weeks than us fans have watched the past 2 seasons. Can't understand why people feel they need to go out there way to comment negatively. Just skip the damn thread. That **** was in some ways funny at one time, but now it is past getting old.

Thank you! You would think Henne is 0-16 in his career on an otherwise Superbowl caliber team.

If he hasn't watched his play in REAL games Bill, as in closely, every game. Then he really doesn't know much about what his flaws were...now does he?

You think practice and games with nothing on the line are the same as the real thing?

You can trust it all you want, most on your side of the fence blindly trust just about anything this organization feeds you.

Players often say nice things about the players they HAVE TO play with, so a wise observer would take it with a grain of salt.

Remember, we had no off-season practices....so as of these comments, Bush has been around Chad for a whopping 25 days.

Das a goot vun.

The other night you're trying to tell me that Orton's overall QBR last season trumps Henne's but ignored his abysmal career 3rd down and 2010 4th quarter QBRs.. essentially saying that the 90% of Denver fans who've seen him up close for 2 years don't know what they're talking about... and that it's only Henne is **** on a stick!

Now, disingenuously you're arguing that the guy who's practicing with Henne and has Drew Brees as his point of reference knows less than fans who've watched Henne for 2 years. Essentially what you're saying is that our fans know more than Reggie, but Denver fans and John Elway know less than non-Broncos fans. Sorry just doesn't compute (unless someone has a closed-minded anti-Henne agenda)
