Reiss: "Maroney is ready to explode"

[Seneschal2]

He's like gunpowder and fire mixing -- a huge explosion

Excerpt:

Now, it's Dillon, Faulk, Maroney, and Heath Evans, each adding a little something to the mix. Dillon brings the power, Faulk the shiftiness and smoothness in the passing game, and Evans the versatility to run and block.

Maroney, meanwhile, is the home run hitter. And when it comes to the playoffs, where one play can extend or end a season, it's nice to have a player who can knock it out of the park.


"He's explosive, one of the best in the league that I've seen in a while like that," said Faulk, now in his eighth season. "When he gets the ball, you just never know what's going to happen. That's the special thing about him."

Obviously, the O-line is the key to his success. And a downfield passing game won't hurt either...

You got that right (IMHO ) It's *always* in the trenches that the season is extended or ended.

Whoa!
Watch your thread titles.
I was worried he'd joined Al Quaeda.

Or had hot dogs and beans for dinner.

From what I've read NEM, you ought to avoid that meal.

What is the proper way to eat a hot dog?

In the chicken-or-egg of which has to come first
by a small margin i think the run game has to be there before downfield passes.

But ... no doubt ... O-line play before anything.

I think we see a couple of huge screens (or passes of other forms) to Maroney tomorrow. Having downfield WR burning one on one coverage is one way to beat the blitz. Another is to throw the call short to where the blitzers came from. Get Maroney in the open field, on the new turf, the interior of the OL has been great getting downfield - Neal missed the last Jest game - and we'll see how often Mangina wants to send Kerry Rhodes, etc, after Brady.

Maroney is a special runner. He looks like such a steal at #21

 

[sieglo]

The amazing thing is that he really hasn't broken open any huge plays yet, given his potential for explosiveness. Hopefully this Sunday will finally be the day, both on special teams and offense.

I am high on Maroney, but this is BS. Colston was the biggest steal of the draft. Heck, even Maurice Drew in the 2nd round could be considered a steal with how well he played.

BB kept Maroney fresh for the playoffs, I expect some impressive runs from him tomorrow.
