As dolphin fans we rip on daniel thomas alot but we have to admit he has been running hard last few weeks especially last night. I give the kid credit.
 
Maybe someone told him to man-up and stop being a bitch.........

Too soon? :chuckle:

Yesterday the OL gave him some openings to run into which have been very few and far between before.

What a concept. OL opens up running lanes, RB's can showcase skills.

Not saying Thomas or Miller are AP 2.0, but guys are good enough to get the job done.
 
When he learns to lean forward and run behind his pads I will give him some credit. What we are seeing now is the line opening holes. I have never seen a back fall backwards so much. If he can emulate half of what Clay did on his TD romp I will buy his jersey.
 
Ever since we drafted DT, the only time I see him doing good is when we run out of the shotgun.
 
Thought the same thing yesterday....Its like someone sat them down and said that their performance the week before was embarrassing and they actually responded or something.
 
He may be running hard.. but it still isn't enough.

Neither he or Miller has taken the role. Neither has manned up and OWNED the job.
 
He looked like a different player the way he was pounding forward when tackled. He's always had the body, maybe he's learning to use it to his advantage. Some of the best runs that I've seen him make. Great to see.

When you learn to actually notice what players are doing now instead of what you believe they are doing I will start giving more credit to your posts. Thomas lowered the shoulder and laid the wood on pretty much every run yesterday. I didn't see him outright break a ton of tackles, but he still punished every defender who tried to tackle him, which is one of the purposes of the run game, especially from your designated power back.

Charles Clay has one of the best plays of the week and a highlight on every online sports page because it wasn't something that happens every play.

He runs as clumsy as this post.

I said emulate half (with half being the key word) not repeat what CC did.
