There are a plethora of BJGE detractors on this board, but have always liked this kid..
Cannot find anything not to like..
Right now killin the clock..
BJGE made me a believer last year. And something he showed tonight was PATIENCE. The idea that you have to always hit the hole HARD is wrong. There was on play were he stopped and the Jets defender flew by him, then BJGE ran up field for a nice 6 yard gain. Had he not stopped, he'd have been hit for a 4 yard loss.
BJGE is the real deal. Contrary to that goof JetFan1's opinion. The real deal = guy who is a feature back. Also, BJGE hasn't fumbled in over 1500 carries going back to High School..
In the game thread I pointed out that BJGE dragged Pouha into the endzone with him to get his first TD, and mentioned that Pouha weighed 300 pounds.
I was wrong, he weighs 325.
Interesting- I didn't know his best bench was 24. Ridley's is 18. Both of them are 5'11, and Ridley has about five more pounds, but has two inches on BJGE in vertical leap which confirms to me that Ridley's prime talent is his acceleration and explosion, not his overall speed (he actually has a lower 40 time than BJGE).
Not enough burst to become an elite QB but he and Ridley will be the difference between a first round exit or a deep playoff run.
Run the ball like today and we won't be beat, even if Brady and the pass protection are having an off day.
Right, Elite to fans means went to a big school, had gaudy statistics, maybe won a trophy like the Heisman, drafted in the first round and out of the NFL in three seasons.... If you want that, find another team, we don't do that here if you hadn't noticed.
BJGE is a real story and so many PATS fans just want to ignore it because he did not come out of a big school or a winning program. You need to read his entire story and remember that this guy was undrafted, came in as a free agent and has PLAYED his way to first string. He's never been injured. He never fumbles. He's got a real nose for the end zone when the PATS get close. He can pick up the blitz the best of all PATS running backs. he's a real team guy, not an "I" guy like so many. The man defines quiet competency as well as toughness. This is the guy I want on MY team, not Reggie Bush, Tomlison, Schon Greene, Arian Foster, Brandon Jacobs, Ahmad Bradshaw or some other over rated schmo.
We should embrace Benny because he is our kind of guy. Do it!
