That's why the gameplan was designed around him. However I'd like him to be less of a focus in the next gameplan and instead focus on spreading the ball around and getting Brady into rhythm first.
Once Brady is slicing the defense apart with passes, it becomes much easier to hand the ball off to Sony because they can't key against the run. If the coaches are seeing something good in Sony, that's all well and good. But we need to change things up if we're going to get this offense jump started. It should all begin with Brady, and Sony should be the bonus weapon, not the other way around. Hopefully Josh McD agrees with this idea when he comes up with the game plan against the Dolphins.
Slower than what ? College ? He is coming of an injury playing vs nfl players who are faster without a pre season.And the line gave him nothing. Give him a break. Jeez.Absolutely nothing about his ability. Seems like that might be important. I guess as long as he has a good head on his shoulders, who cares if he can play.
He is surprisingly slower than expected. There were a couple plays in the Lions game where he couldn't beat a DE to the edge. It was a surprising lack of athleticism.

bagging on michel when the whole team and especially the dline played like crap is just uncalled for.
once again , 2 games without preseason and injury behind terrible line play . Please wait before you declare how much explosion he has or hasn't.Not really "bagging" on him. Just surprised he couldn't beat a DE to the edge. I'm sure in practice he can do it all of the time. Of course a tortoise could beat our D to the edge.
Michel may end up being a fine player, but his comparison as a prospect was Kamara. He simply does not appear to have that level of explosion.

Tell me who played well that night ?You can only go by what you see. Hypothetical hope holds no present value.

On what play did he fail to beat a defensive end to the edge? His outside runs last weekend were broken up by RJF, an under tackle, annihilating Shaq Mason, and Tavon Wilson, who is decidedly not a defensive end, going unblocked by Dwayne Allen.
If Kamara's your goal for Michel, I invite you to take a look at Kamara's stat line in his first two games as a pro. Heck, take a gander at his rushing stat line in his first two games this year.

(Interestingly, one of the things that led to up-and-down rushing games for Kamara both last year and this year is Payton's insistence on running him into 8-man boxes. Sound familiar?)
It’s what kamara does receiving that makes him special. He has 30 receptions so far. That’s 4 more than Gronk and white combined. I can’t see michel even coming close to this part of his game. That’s why I never understood those comparisons to begin with.
Good game. Still does not look as explosive as he did last year in Georgia. Hope he regains that this year.
It exposes the pink hats.112 yards and a TD for Michel and still people find a way to complain. LOL. Typical messageboard pots...
