Ricky should add 10..

[Haournyie]

Does anybody else want to see ricky a little heavier?? It seem to me like he was a lot more effective in his days as a power back.

I agree. He could really pound bodies and I was watching a video the other day of Ricky in 2003 and it even seems he was faster. Im not quite sure how, but he would hit the hole a lot faster and would just pound his way through. It seems he is dancing a little too much this year.

Now that we have ronnie we don't need to use ricky as a power back...
He's a burner now.. only a matter of time before he busts off an 80 yarder!

I think ricky is playing very well at his current weight. I like his quickness.

I´m not so sure about that. In his old days he would start dancing after he hit the hole at full speed and allready gained 3 yards. To me that looks like the better ricky.

I say yes and no....if that 34 yard TD run against the Raiders was set up at our own 20.....yea he would have gone for 80....he blew by those guys....however...I also remember the heavier Ricky ending that Jet 8 game winning streak...with a very fast 53 yarder....blowing by everybody. So....i dont know. For Rickys sake...I say add 10..as long as the quickness stays....and he will be more attractive to teams.

I agree with you... His better days back were when he was heavier.. But i think we will be more succesful having him a bit lighter.. Gives the defense change of pace..

does anybody remember that game in buffalo were we lost but ricky had two or three runs over 50 yards??

True having two different types of runners is tough for a D but I think in his mind ricky is and has always been a power runner

I guess that Atkins Diet works even though that Atkins guy was overweight..:D

Gonna be hard for him to gain a lot of weight, he doesn't eat meat anymore.
