I find it amusing that Maroney lovers who were almost mocking members in here about anyone saying that BJGE was better for the team suddenly shuts up when Belichick followed suit and made the CORRECT move.
Easy to hide in here knowing you were wrong is apparently as easy to ridicule

It's not always about ridicule and hiding. I wasn't mocking anyone, but I did and still do think that Maroney is a better RB than BJGE. I also like BJGE and I'm glad that his hard work paid off. Clearly he outworked Maroney and BB preferred some things about his game. So congrats to him and I hope he continues to improve.

I was never a fan and I'll gladly eat crow when he goes over 4.5 YPC against a decent defense. Ripping the Bills for 6+ YPC to help out his average doesn't impress me.

To my eyes, what I saw was Maroney getting stoned at the line or cutting laterally looking for a hole...then insert running back of your choice (Morris, Taylor) and they rip off 3 to 6 yards up the middle in the same set of downs with the same line against the same defense. That tells me...all things being equal, Maroney was the problem.
I still think he was being used improperly. I saw him rip off a good gain last week on a swing/screen pass. I can't imagine why BB did not use him more that way unless his hands are suspect. I think if you ignore his size and use him as third down type of back he could be very productive. I think McDaniels may get more out of him. BB appears too stubborn some times.
One other thing I distinctly remember is how the OL was a big reason from the know it alls as to why Lomo failed to produce,wasn't this close to the same OL that BJGE ran through for near 100 yards last week? And even the midget woodhead found gaps to run for near 40 yards
This OL is not the greatest run blocking unit in the world but give them a hard trying North to south RB to block for and they will do a reasonable good job and it showed last week
BJGE is far from proven and he won't amount to anymore than a reliable RB,but he is indeed makes this RB corps a better unit than it would be without him
