[QUOTE="ColoradoPacker51, post: 800294, member: 13314"] Ahman is my favorite packer of all time, and the reason I became a packers fan. I think Aaron Jones is the best back we’ve had in awhile, possibly since ahman. But they are two completely different runners. Ahman was a patient, zone running back, who had the burst, speed, vision, and toughness to hit the hole, and get a positive play. Aaron I feel hits the hole much faster and quicker, and has that elusiveness. I haven’t seen as much of the power game from Aaron yet, but don’t feel he’s easy to tackle. Ahman was tough to bring down, and had the speed to out run players. Remember his run against Denver from the 2 yard line, I’ll always remember that play. Ahman had great hands as well, and was part of a great era for 1 headed running attacks with Preist Holmes, Shaun Alexander, Ricky Williams, LT, Jamal Lewis, Clinton Portis, who could all run and catch the ball very well, and we’re heavily used by their teams. I feel like the NFL is slightly going that way again, with 1 RB who can do it all, and Jones is that guy now. I am excited to see him get more opportunities, because Ahman dominated the GB backfield for 6 years. Jones needs to get that volume before he’ll get to the ranks of Ahman as an all time packer great. [/QUOTE]
