[QUOTE="PackerGeek, post: 164764, member: 798"] I think you may be actually pushing me over to Trom's side. Just how many "Dominating" runners do you think there are in the NFL? Ther are MAYBE a handful of runners who are dominating. Tomilinson, Jackson, LJ maybe a couple more if you strech what you consider dominating. Some may Dominate for a stretch if everything goes there way but great running backs are rare in this world. Everyone thought Edge was dominating when he was a Colt and he moved and did nothing. The opposite can be said for Priest Holmes he was nothing before he went to KC. Hell even Brett couldn't get past third string in Atlanta. My point is every player's performance is effected by the system and the culture of the team they play for. Four weeks into their career is quick to write someone off. It will take some time for him to develop. Hell, we havn't even seen them fully implement this years playbook, weve seen a couple of vanilla schemes in some meaningless pre-season games. I don't know how good he's going to be, if I could see the future I would be in Vegas right now. But I'm willing to at least be cautiosly optimistic about him and this season. Now as for the rest of the nonsens, I'm not young, I'm not a good speller and I live minutes away from the stadium.( I don't know why but that seems to matter to you.) I too remember the Starr and Infanti days. And if you think those teams are even comperable to what we have now then I just can't see you as being a credible judge. [/QUOTE]
