    Bush or Alexander: All the marbles

    Inspired by Hasselbeck's thread, I want to know, if you faced a 4th and goal on the 1 yard line to save your season, which RB would you choose to get that yard?

    Reggie Bush, or Shaun Alexander?

          Shaun in his prime. Otherwise, I'm not sure. I know Reggie's a great return man and pass-catcher, but he's not a tough yardage guy.

                  Hightower is a beast inside the 10 or on 3rd and 1. Other than those situations, he decides to have happy feet and dance in the backfield.

                  Anyways on to the original topic, I'd take Shaun Alexander even if he has broken legs. I don't trust Bush to get into the endzone, if anybody touched him he would end up with an injury or possibly fumbling.

                      That works too. I really just wanted to make fun of Reggie Bush is all. I almost went with Cedric Benson, or Brian Westbrook. But I like Westbrook too much to even compare him to Reggie and Cedric is so bad that it would've made Bush look good by comparison.

                      I figured a washed up guy who was known for falling down on first contact was the perfect choice. But perhaps there are better comparisons out there?

                      Who else sucks at getting 1 yard as badly as Reggie Bush ladies and gents?

                        Shaun Alexander of course. This is the worst topic of all time.

                          Laurence Maroney? he likes to dance a lot before the lone of scrimmage.

                            *hits head on desk*

                            You're right, I should've gone with L-Mo. Missed a golden opportunity there.

                              Bush vs. Barry Sanders

                              Thing is, we know nothing of Sanders' goal line ability, because Wayne Fontes would always pull him and go with the likes of Tommy Vardell and Ron Rivers inside the 10.
