Re-watching games from last year, Bush looked liked like a guy who didn't want to be out there. What was amazing was that the Steelers continually put the guy on the field when they have an up close view with his play.

Is this a dog whistle of the David Morehouse variety, or the "this team is unlikeable - that's not how a *real* American celebrates a TD" version?

Bush is the godson of Derrick Brooks (who Tomlin coached in TB)
Brooks and Tomlin are extremely tight

The apple fell quite far from the god tree on this one.

Bush's desire doesn't appear to be there when I watch him. He looks like a spoiled kid who had supreme athletic ability and was able to get by on that alone. Now that he's playing guys as athletic as he is, he needs to buck up and he isn't. The guy doesn't even put up a fight in the run game. It's really sad how much we gave up for him to fail.
Bush’s tentativeness last year definitely could have been because he was afraid his knee would give out on him. He didn’t look like that at all his rookie year and second year before the injury so who knows.
I was listening to a podcast with Dale Lolley and Matt Williamson and they said Bush has had a solid camp. I saw Dulac’s report and he may be right, but his reporting has been so bad this offseason so he’s in the grain of salt tier for me.

Chris Hoke on Bush: "whenever he's on the field, the Steelers are essentially playing with 10 men."
Merrill Hoge: "I don't see how he can be on the team next season, if he is, we won't make the playoffs."
Not sure I've ever heard ex Steelers with such criticism (albeit well deserved) of a current Steeler.

It's not really a projection. He gets destroyed in the run game to the point he may as well not even be there. If his knee isn't well enough to stand up in the run game still, he shouldn't be out there. He gives up on plays, and allows himself to get swept up. He is a privileged kid who came from a professional player and has some of the best to ever play the game as his Godfather and friends of his dad. He blows. Golden goose lays an egg.
It's so evident. The guy from his rookie year to now is 180 degrees different.

People should have known Bush was going to fail when he showed up to draft night in a horrific attempt at a Michael Jackson outfit...
I agree, the kid has zero work ethic and the fact that Robert f***ing Spillane is probably going to beat him out is a testament to what is being said.
And once again, it proves Tomlin would rather play favorites, be one of the boys, give handouts to family and old connections.
Dude is a fraud of the highest order.

Its absolutely 100 percent a projection.
Him sucking and being privileged are a causation you want with no tangible reason to believe.

Yup.
He sucks. Yes. That can be seen. We can even see what about his game is making him suck. But the idea that we can identify the root cause of it is projection/speculation for sure.

Why do you think he sucks?
I mean, I guess every MLB in the league has an NFL dad and a godfather that is Derrick Brooks. The guy has a leg up. He's getting beaten out by Robert f***ing Spillane right now. Stick up for the dude. Say people are projecting. He sucks, and he didn't before. There has to be something happening. My hope is that he figures his shit out or they cut him because he's detrimental to the team with how he played last year.

I was also. And his rookie year was incredibly promising. If he is still mindf***ed over his knee injury, that's a big issue. He has said he lacks confidence in his knee.
Jack is going to help Bush, but you can't cover up a MLB that looks like he's on skates out there.
