I read quite a bit on here yesterday about people being disappointed by Brown's running ability. Let me tell you I watched a ton of football yesterday, and as well as the Dolphins played, they were not opening running lanes for him. The spin move he made inside the 10 yard line to get to the 2 or 3 was absolutely incredible and all him, no blocking.

Having said all of that, I have a strong feeling that we need to set up some screens for Brown. I think if you get him and 2 blockers in the flat, you'll see a huge play. He seems extremely intelligent when it comes to using his blockers and picking his spots. I think setting up some nice screen plays for him this coming weekend is a must, and will help build a ton of confidence for him, confidence he may not be able to get behind this line, this year. Just my opinion.
 
For a rookie who only had 11 carries in the pre-season, running behind a shaky offensive line, Ronnie did fine. I think the announcers said he had better numbers than R.W. had in his first game in NO. Give it time... he'll learn and hopefully the O-line will continue to improve. Ronnie will be OK.
