IT IS MILLER TIME!!! he showed sparks throughout his nfl career, but now he is truly proving his worth. minus the fumbles, he has ben one of the best running backs in the league. he is 6th in rushing, 2nd in ypc, 2nd in 20+ carries with 4, just one behind murray(who also has two fumbles), and is in the top ten in all running back statistical categories besides, wait for it........ RUSHING ATTEMPTS!!!! lets do what the cowboys are doing and run this offense through our running game, nd lets get lamar millers name out there. ITS MILLER TIME LAZOR!
 
Miller's looked good. However, Moreno looked good too before he got hurt. In his few carries Thomas has looked good too. While I'm happy for all three I still wonder how much of the backs success is their skill and how much is scheme and blocking. I've seen several holes this season that I could only daydream about Todd Gurley, Melvin Gordon, Ameer Abdullah or TJ Yeldon running through.
 
Hopefully, Lazor learned from the KC game.
 
If Miller keeps getting these chunk runs it's eventually going to help Tannehill get more opportunities deep. Defensive coordinators are going to have to account for Miller and bring another body to the LOS. But he has to keep hitting the 10+ yard gash runs he's gotten the last couple of weeks.
 
M&M

Miller AND Moreno will be both be great for us under Lazor and Benton.
 
Lazor has a lot of toys to play with in 5 good WR's, Clay, and 3 RB's who can make an impact. Gonna be tuff to give them all playing time.
 
Another thing about Miller if you follow him on twitter, you'll see that he's got outstanding character. One of the most humble and down to earth pro athletes.
 
Green Bay has a bad run defense this year, so I heartily agree. They're last in yards per game (giving up 20 more yards per game than the next worst), are 10th from the bottom in ypc surrendered, and have allowed the second most rushing touchdowns.

Run the ball.
 
Don't get me wrong Miller has played well but I have a feeling that once Moreno returns Miller's opportunities will go down. After watching Moreno run week one, when healthy, he is a much more talented back than Miller. He just has way better vision for finding the small openings, is better as pass pro, runs through contact and has better hands. Which is what the tape has shown from his days in Denver as well.
 
A balanced offense and a dedication to run the ball, an OL Coach known for molding a good running game, a creative OC learning from mistakes, OL with a natural strength in pass protection, minimizing turnovers, protecting the QB and an up-tempo offense.

Isn't it amazing when the obvious things get fixed how the rest of the game gets a lot easier?

Lazor has practiced using both at the same time. Interesting option with both potentially a passing option on both sides. Think we will see that vs GB.

Haven't seen Moreno mentioned at practice today. I would say he's still iffy to play against GB.
