RussMan Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Michael Bush will start the Raiders' third exhibition game Saturday. We're not saying Bush will start Week 1, but it's worth noting that coach Tom Cable said in camp that the backfield pecking order in the third exhibition would be similar to the regular season's. Justin Fargas (hamstring) may not play anyway, but how Bush performs against the Saints could go a long way.Source: Oakland Tribune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaiderSteve Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Interesting. Thinking Bush may receive more carries then previously thought. We know he basically already passed Fargas up. It will be interesting to see who the Raiders prefer for their goal line back. At any rate Bush remains a must have back up to Run DMC!

Return Of S&B Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 If Bush performs well, I think he will be as valuable as McFadden, if not more. I think the Raiders should start Bush (as I stated before) and have McFadden come as change of pace and third down back. Fargas, on the other hand, should clearly be the odd man out.

Randall Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 This is interesting because of what Cable said earlier. It could be an equal RBBC or Bush could get more carries than McFadden. It could mean Cable changed him mind too and wants to see Bush against a top defense too. I will be paying attention as a Bush owner.

The Saints are a top defense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubfoothead Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'll reply to the other part of this. The Saints are a top defense? Maybe he meant a 1st string defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
