Just thought this was funny. Because Bush belongs on the same field as Hester, right? lol

Bush was never a great DB, but he has always been one of the best ST players. To year after year continue to make this team because of his coverage skills is pretty impressive. And when push comes to shove, he does have some ability when called to play defense in the time of need.

If Masthay doesn't have to punt more than once again, may not matter.

Again, not even on the same level. Hester could be the best all time at the most difficult ST position.

Bush is ok, but he's nothing close to great. Yeah, he's a gunner. He can run down the field and tackle a guy, or TRY to tackle a guy. About 1/4 he has an opportunity he can also down the ball inside the 5, without stepping into the end zone first.

Might want to check The Pro Bowl voting, last I saw, Jarret Bush was leading the voting for Special teams player in The NFC.


Nobody cares about The gunner on the ST's until the opponent returns a punt or kick off for a TD.

Then all hell breaks out!!!!!

Equivelant to your typical Offensive lineman, only time they get attention is when they are called for a penalty.

Gunner on St's is just as important a PR.

Not anybody can be the best returner in the history of the game.

Surely if ANYONE could be the BEST gunner in the league, then wouldn't it be smart to get a guy who was better at playing DB?

Anybody can be a punt returner, but only one is the best punt returner.

Don't underestimate the importance of what Jarret Bush does.

Hopefully he and his teammates win the Special Teams battle tonight.

For Atlanta to pull the upset they will need to create turnovers and win The Special teams battle.

I'd rather have a great cover guy than a great return guy.

Hester has 19 return TDs (14 on punts) in 9 years. Say its 3 in a typical year. That's 21 points.

A great cover guy can probably mean 8-10 extra yards per series the opposing offense has to go. That's almost an extra first down per drive. I'd rather have someone who could do that even once a game, than someone who can guarantee 3 TDs per year.

And my guess is Bush is good enough that it's more like 2-3 times a game that opponents have to get an extra first down per drive. -- doesn't he cover kickoffs, too?

I'd take Bush over Hester.
