The man, the myth, the legend
Blount has rushed for six yards on five carries against the Broncos thus far. Blount is another reclamation project of the Patriots that looks good, not great, in a once in a generation situation. He's running behind one of the best offensive lines in the league while defenses key on one of the best quarterbacks the league has ever seen. He'd come here and be a dud. Running backs are a dime a dozen. Rarely are free agent running backs of any consequence. How many times have we seen a guy leave a situation only to become ordinary or bad somewhere else? Rarely do they go to a new situation and become extraordinary. Marshawn Lynch is the only guy I can think of in that category. The Pats did the same thing with a declining Corey Dillon back in the day, plug him into their system and get a career year out of the guy. Blount isn't even having that kind of year, not even close. He'd come here and get in trouble again. There is no leadership on this team.
Darren sproles, Clinton Portis and to a lesser extent, Michael turner. I know what you're sayin, but it does happen. For the record, I would pass on this Blount.
