I hope we let him go. He hasn't lived up to #2 pick status because of injuries and he is starting to get up there in age as far as RBs go. He could have been great if he wasn't made of glass. Time to move on.
I totally agree. I would offer him a 2 year 6 million deal (incentives), 2 million singing bonus and then have an option on a 3r year. I think that is fair, would almost pay it not to see him go to NE and play like I think he can.Ronnie would have a few career best seasons with NE. I see no reason why that would not be his first stop as a Free Agent. They have no clear cut back and Ronnie is better than anything they currently have on the roster. Not to mention Ronnie is a TEAM PLAYER and NE loves a good team player.
Ronnie is good at picking up a blitz, chip blocking and hitting the flats, catching the ball, pounding the rock late in games, hitting holes (Not that you see more than 2-3 a game here in Miami, but they really do exist and most teams create them 8-12 times a game.)
I do not see the Front Office giving Ronnie a new contract. So he will sign with NE and play like a TOP 10 RB, then people here will say stuff like...
He is only doing it b/c of the Tom Brady factor...
He is only doing it b/c of BilliCheat and his systems...
I have no doubt that in the right system Ronnie Brown will run through holes, not dance behind the pass blocking OL like we have here. That system very well could be New England. If that happens look for Ronnie to be a factor in our losses to NE in the future.
Brown stinks. Great guy though. Go to New England. Whatevs.
You may not care right now but once you see him in NE tearing it up (which I am 100% sure if he Cora to NE he will tear it up) everyone that bash's him will be woundering why we let him go mark my word on that he will be the Ronnie we had in 07 before he tore his acl
I have seen it come up multiple times. Good ole coach Bill has seen the potential of this guy and wants him badly. He has made the like of Danny "I Cant see over high curbs" Woodhead and "The Law Firm" BenJavis Green Ellis, look like probowl running backs. Imagine what he will do with Ronnie Brown.
Belicheat himself said "He is underutilized and has loads of talent". Any of you guys who believe he doesnt, are either nuts or have the intelligence level of Tony Sparano (yes that's an insult). Any running back can look sub-par if they are only handed the ball 3 times, 5 times, 7 times, etc. Running backs like Ronnie and Ricky need to get going. How many times in 2003 did Ricky Williams enter the 3rd quarter with stats that looked like this...14 carries 35 yards....or similar? TONS! But we fed him the ball over and over and he would end up with 28 carries for 150. Barry Sanders would have 2 yards on his first 10 carries SO MANY TIMES! When it was said and done he had over 100 yards most of the time. You need to feed them the ball! Bill Belichik knows this and Tom Brady would play with constant smile on that pretty little face of his if he had the smiling #23 lined up behind him.
Belichik also knows that RB is much more than a ...well...RB. He can catch, command an offense and even throw. He is a leader, a balls to the wall, pedal to the medal Running Back, who deserves a heck of a lot better than he is getting in South Florida. I love my Dolphins, but I am officially making a plea to management and asking "PLEASE KEEP RONNIE BROWN (AND RICKY) AND GET RID OF THE REAL PROBLEMS...THE COACHING STAFF".
Ronnie is NOT old, he is NOT worn out....what he is, is UNDER UTILIZED. Miami needs to get the ball to their best players and those players include our running backs, and more importantly Ronnie "Big Game" Brown.
Come on Ron, demand the ball and prove me right....while you are still on our side. Because I know you will prove me right when you are on someone elses sidelines next year.
Touché.i remember when people said the same thing about chris chambers.......
