Yup, my experience has been that a lot folks avoid long on going threads on various subjects. Had one on the Seahawks board and cut it loose by popular demand by posters claiming they didn't even bother to click on it. Think folks like to create a thread on a subject to give it due attention.
I was right there with Foot...2 years ago, and throughout that rookie year, but since then not so much. Still think he could be, but his style would dictate about 30 carries to be effective. .old school. He doesn't fit what they do today. Rex Ryan probably loves him.
Even with 30 carries he'd get 90 yards his ypc for a "bruiser" is bad
Well, not necessarily. .guys like him, after about 15-20, the average starts to go up. Emmitt, Peyton, Dorsett, Dickerson..those guys didn't bust out highlight reel runs every other carry, they beat on and beat on the defense until they only had arm tackles to break, then they started having the big ones..generally speaking. So his pathetic YPC would've been built only during wear them down phase, but he never got the opportunity to wear them down enough and then take advantage. But, can't blame the GMen, that style just doesn't play today.
I agree. BUT I've never seen anything he's done in the nfl to think that would happen. Lots of college backs look that part in college.
You know, our opinions are always so vastly different, it's great. It's nice to see and hear a polar opposite view. So thank you
Mike Klis also actively campaigned geno smith as a can't miss franchise changing qb
