Still slipper as whale **** too.

One part of his game I always liked that nobody talks about his his stiff arm. He's got long arms and deceptive strength. Defender he sticks that hand out and pushes off a guys facemask and creates separation.

I wish he had fans from his college days who realized he's never going to be an every down back.

Well, he could be, followed by long glorious stints on the IR.

so he has no chance to be a significant RB in the NFL.

the problem in atlanta is that he's behind michael turner, not that they don't know how to use him. turner will probably lead the league in carries again.

but how much time has he spent on the IR list there? I know he's not built like a typical every-down NFL back, but I also know that people said the same thing when he came to college, that he was too skinny- and I know that he ran behind some awful offense lines in college and hit by a lot of the same guys that play in the NFL today, and was much more durable than one might think.
