Blitz-pickup....

Very important in our offense, and with TFB on the field.

Those RB's taken in the draft were aimed toward the future, and like many other positions on this team, it's hard to make an impact as a rookie when there are some very good players ahead of you who do their jobs properly.

BJGE is very familiar with the offense, has never fumbled in the NFL, and is coming off a 1,000 yd season. He is also more effective than most of our RB's at blitz pickup.

Woodhead is obviously going to be used as a change of pace back, and offered a lot to this team last yr.

Faulk is a proven vet, still a good 3rd down back, and is no doubt our best RB at picking up the blitz and protecting Brady.

Ridley and to a lesser extent, Vereen, have had very limited opportunities this yr. That has been due to throwing the ball a lot with a HOF QB at the helm and a potent passing attack, and having 3 very competent guys ahead of them.

I feel your frustration regarding Vereen, but it's not too easy to make an impact here on this team as a rookie. Even McCourty was somewhat lucky last yr to make such an impact + get so many starting reps, as injuries forced him into that role.

He posted the same thread twice.. guess once is not good enough. Sometimes if you say things more than once is becomes more believable...

Merge, delete, move to PS, ban...whatever. The only thing more annoying than a winer is a winer trolling for attention so intently he double posts his lame threads in the process...

Agreed. This is my last act before going to Fedex this morning. He's taking a two day vacation and can start his probation on Tuesday - - he'll be closely watched and better not drink and post again.

Wow....... I missed all the fun again. Sigh.

We used to attract a much higher quality of trolls. Lately we've been getting more from the moronosphere.

Ah well. Looking forward to a nice breakfast with my daughter, then a relaxing day watching football and trying to get rid of this bothersome cold.

When I'm over my limit, I always use a designated poster.
