The Detroit Lions saw what new running back Reggie Bush could do in their offense Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. Now, even though he has minor injuries, they don't plan on limiting him. Detroit coach Jim Schwartz said Monday that Bush's dislocated left thumb and pulled groin will not change how the Lions use him. "No, we're going to try and go win games and score points," Schwartz said. "Reggie's a tough guy. I don't know how many running backs touched the ball as many times as he did [Sunday] but anybody that did is probably experiencing the same kind of things [Monday]." Bush had a career-high 227 carries last season for the Miami Dolphins. He was asked Tuesday on ESPN Radio's "Mike and Mike" what he thought his ideal number of touches in each game should be. "I'm not sure, because every game is different," he said. "You can never really game plan for the amount of touches you're going to get because every game is going to be different and every defensive coordinator is going to play you different. They're going to game plan you different. "This last game, [I had] 25 touches and it felt great. I felt like I was able to really take advantage of my touches and I try to take the most of every opportunity every time I touched the ball or even when I'm out on the football field and hopefully just causing the defense to double cover me and other guys getting open."
