And performing tight.Yeah we all want our Bush performing.
Devin Bust
- Thread starter ChampYINZ
- Start date
without Tuitt and Tyson, he hasn't gotten much help to get clear lanes at the RB, blitzing on the delay his speed has been deadly, Need to blitz him more, can try Gilbert in coverage he was drafted to play coverage in nickel and dime.

Trade him to the Lions next year for whatever they will give...that’s where he belongs

i'm old enough to remember being told that number of tackles didnt matter. yet, in BusT's case...

that was the only actual play he made so apparently to make an aggressive play at the line, Bush needs to know for a fact that it will be a normal run play with no chance of a pass or misdirection and he has to have a straight, unblocked path and then he can make a play.

Play after play after play Bush is just a guy out there taking up space. Never in the right spot, never arriving at the right speed, never taking the right angle, never exerting his will on blockers or ball carriers. Consequently, the Steelers played almost an entire game with 10 defenders on the field. With Spillane coming off the Covid list today, the Steelers should shelve Bush or demote him to special teams. From this moment on, it should be Joe Schoebert out there with some combination of Spillane/Buddy Johnson and Gilbert/Allen. Bush looked promising his rookie year, has never been the same since the injury. No heart, no fire, no desire. He's had ample opportunity to turn things around. Best to cut our losses and move on.
And Ray Lewis also had 2 solo tackles and a sack!
Exactly This! Bush plays with no heart, no fire, no intensity! He's out there just to collect a paycheck. If you were to compare effort between TJ Watt 100% Devin Bust 0.2% He's the Kent Dorfman of the Defense!
I wouldn't offer him his 5th year either. I'd make him prove himself but he may hightail it out of here if he does. I think like most ACL's (I've said this before multiple times but threads on Bush keep popping up), it takes a year to get back on the field but most players say it takes up to 3 years (or more) to get back to where you were. And, like Ben with his elbow, Bush was rehabbing since the injury, he was not working on his craft or on improving. He was rehabbing. That is why Ben's arm got tired at the end of last year because he was throwing so much trying to rehab but not improve his craft. If Bush stays healthy and gets to work on his craft this offseason, I fully expect him to be much improved come next year. Will he end up being worth moving up in the 1st round? Maybe, maybe not but if he does improve next year, he will, more than likely sign somewhere else. So, we can pretty much count on needing to sign and draft 2 ILB starters as Spillane is mostly a backup and Schobert isn't as good as we had hoped he would be. He's really not been much better than Bush.

Bush is starting to make me wonder who the better LB was Bush or Jarvis...never thought I’d say that.

And it would have been totally worth it as they wheel you off the field in a cart. You might be able to give a thumbs up so everyone knows you have movement in your extremities, but even if you couldn't, totally worth it.
Well ****, its not like we cant get a guy off the street to do the same thing. The Kuntz kid playing long snapper from Duquesne is probably better than Devon Bush.
Go to 7:12 mark.
Is bush the new free safety?
I'll say this Javis just didn't have the skills to play OLB at an NFL level. He certainly gave the effort required. Devin Bush is effort can best be described as Lackluster, Heartless and minimal at best although I really see a punk kid who is just there to collect a paycheck. He shows no effort on that football field to engage an Offensive player or ball carrier.
No, Schobert isn't as good as we'd hoped. But he does lead the team with 84 tackles, or 31 more than Bush. Plus he has 5 passes defended to Bush's 1. Yes, Devin Bush has defended ONE pass this entire season.
To say that Schobert hasn't been much better than Bush is ridiculous. Schobert has been average. Bush sucks.
Keep dreaming.
A lot of money invested to not at least see if he can gain some of that burst back post injury. If he doesn't show a glimpse of improvement then you ship him off.
To where?
To the highest bidder. Might be nothing more than a 6th if he continues his suck.To where?
There will be no bidders. I would take any starting ILB in the AFC right now.
When they drafted Jarvis I said then that because of his spinal stenosis (I have an uncle with it) he'd never be able to lift enough to bulk up enough to be adequate as an NFL player, and I was right. I will do Colbert's job for 75% of his salary.
K start with AR bring in a run stuffing NT and a SS.
