From the Vids: Whose Run Style Does LoMo Resemble? - New England Patriots Forums

I'll say: Curtis Martin - -similar build, shifty for that size, great speed, does notseem to initiate contact (therefore, a nice complement to Dillon?), likes to hit the homeruns vs. the tough short yardage situations.

I definitely wouldn't have thought of CuMar.

Edgerrin James has been the standard comparison. I think it's a pretty good comparison.

It depends.
Some say Edge others say Martin.

Lets just let Maroney play like he wants to play.

His college running style.

I wouldn't say Martin because even though he is a future HOF he is not a home run hitter and doesn't have break away speed. It is too early to reall tell but I'd say a cross between James and Portis. James isn't a speedster either but Portis is.

I think his running style is VERY similar to Portis. Except Maroney seems to have more acceleration once he spots the hole.
