ALLEN PARK -- Reggie Bush is coming off his worst rushing performance of the season.

In the Detroit Lions' 27-24 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, Bush carried the ball 20 times, but only managed to gain 50 yards on the ground. His longest run was just seven yards.

After reviewing the film from the game, Bush wasn't happy.

"I definitely felt like after that game I could have run the ball better," Bush said. "I felt like there were some areas where I missed some holes. I wasn't running as aggressive. I have to correct that mistake. It starts with me first."

Bush is intent on being more decisive when the Lions host Dallas this Sunday.

The Cowboys rank 13th overall against the run, but are allowing 4.3 yards per carry, 25th in the NFL.

They've been worse over the past three games, surrendering 4.6 yards per attempt.

"This is another good front seven that we are going to face," Bush said. "For the running backs, starting with myself, I have to do a better job at just attacking the holes when I see them and giving my offense a chance at the second-and-shorts and the third-and-shorts."

For the season, Bush has racked up 426 rushing yards on 98 attempts (4.3 yards per carry). He's tied for seventh among running backs with three carries of 20 or more yards.
