Re: Not so "idle thoughts".....
I haven't read further than this b/c I had to respond. It's funny, I hadn't seen Maroney's stats yet (thanks to NFL Network never showing stats during the game, another sign of their weak production...) so I had no idea what his numbers were. I thought he had an AWESOME game. I really did. I now realize he was 19 for 46, but I don't care, I saw what he did with my own two eyes. He had three extremely clutch runs to get into the end zone (one for 2 pt conversion) and anytime there was a hole at all, he hit it hard and turned it into yardage. A handful of rushing players were over before they began.
Again, I think a lot of Maroney rushes that end up in minus or no yardage, it's really hard to fault him for them. When there's a guy in the backfield as soon as you touch the ball, it's not the RB's fault. He did a great job, I really think that was one of the best and biggest games of his young career.
3. I thought Maroney had a pretty good game, even though his raw stats sucked (2.4ypc).
