Such an amazing turnaround. I attribute it mostly to better tackling. What do you see?
That, and our interior line play has significantly improved.Such an amazing turnaround. I attribute it mostly to better tackling. What do you see?
Right. Better push for sure. Not seeing Grant 10-yards down the field and blocked out of the play. Must be doing better setting the edge, too.That, and our interior line play has significantly improved.
That would be so Grier...wait...Achane has been one of the few bright spots on the team this year. He's more than earned a pay raise from Miami. There is no way I see him playing on the last year on his rookie deal in 2026 for $1.7M.
Also - Ricky did marijuana and refused to take the Oxy stuff. His perspective did indeed age well.The last week on this board has been much more enjoyable because the admins/mods did a great job of banning people who were only there to antagonize other posters. Lets not let continue the sniping back and forth between fellow brothers and lets please refrain from insulting each other, think we owe the admins and mods some respect after what they've done to make this board a much more tolerant place to express our views. Rico didnt insult anyone, he just piggybacked off a comment and made light of the situation, and I also can never insult or judge anyone for smoking weed as I have partaken in that quite a bit over my life lol.
As far as Ricky, he did say that marijuana helps his recovery and pain tolerance after games and disagreed with it being a banned substance by the NFL, and I agree with him. There is really no advantage it gives you on the football field, unless you consider someone eating a bag of cheetos on the sideline helping them perfrom better in game lol.
I remember Abdul-Jabbar’s 1,000 yard season as it was the first 1,000 yard back we had in Marino’s career and first since 1978 and Delvin Williams (though Andra Franklin’s 702 in the 9 game ‘82 season should count). Jabbar was so mediocre - he got those 1,000 yards on like 400 carries.View attachment 199057
Achane is looking like our best RB ever drafted after 3 seasons. What a steal in the 3rd round. Detroit and Atlanta gave up top 10 picks in same draft to get the same production.
I’m not sure I’ve seen better instincts in a NFL RB…..he could find holes that would just astound me, and that’s not even speaking of his physical abilities!Ricky doesn’t get his due respect in the pantheon of great RBs.
He was amazing. I remember Jim Brown saying something similar to you during that 2002 season.I’m not sure I’ve seen better instincts in a NFL RB…..he could find holes that would just astound me, and that’s not even speaking of his physical abilities!
Why don't you two get a room...
I liked Bernie Parmalee. He wasn't elite but he was decent. Twice he had 800+ yards, and he probably could've hit 1000 with more carries.I remember Abdul-Jabbar’s 1,000 yard season as it was the first 1,000 yard back we had in Marino’s career and first since 1978 and Delvin Williams (though Andra Franklin’s 702 in the 9 game ‘82 season should count).
