Do you believe Maroney COULD rush for 100+ vs Jets and Miami?

[emoney_33]

Let's say the Patriots decided to base their gameplan around running the ball, and practiced with that mindset during the week. If they then hand the ball off to Maroney consistently, say 25+ times, do you believe that he could eclipse 100 yards rushing?

 

[PatsFan#37]

I don't think he is going to be used, as the passing game seems to be the teams priority period

Why is there no "he will be injured" option?

That can fall into the not having ability category.

Alright.......

blizzard sunday.

look for 150 + 3 td's.

it'll be a perfect storm for maroney.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Could? Of course.
WILL he? Unlikely.
Try LISTENING to BB and Brady. If 'retahdid' DCs insist on using run stoping DL formations against us, why WHY shouldn't we pass???

 

[WestPat]

yes.
if the game plan is a run oriented one , and Maroney is given 25+ carries, he will rush for 100 yards or more.

Check the other thread with twisted words, then you'll understand

 

[emoney_33]

You should be proud of the award. There was a lot of competition, just in the Maroney category.

 

[Ghost of Ben Dreith]

I voted yes......but who wouldn't.....100 yards in 2 games against two of the worst teams in the league.....of course he has a good chance of doing it.....I will go out on a limb and say he gets 60 against the Rats and the other 40 against the fish...

I can't believe some of you were answering this like the OP was asking for 100 against each of those teams......who would be that stupid to think he could do that

Sorry, Patsnut's got the definitive poll on the subject.

 

[ALP]

r u kidin? agasint miam and jets? if we kept running it, he could get past the 200's in my opinion...easily

 

[eom]

I think if he hurts himself he could get another 100 yds in a wheelchair, like people in marathons.

I agree, can you say Breakout game. Personally it can't come soon enough to stop all these Maroney posts, also gives the 'pundits' on less thing to harp on. Get ready for 2 TEs (one of them being O'Callaghan).

 

[sebman2112]

realistically this total should have been more like if he runs the ball 18-22 times, as that's about the amount of carries I'd expect it to take him, and the one time he wen't over 100 yards earlier in the season, the Patriots gave him the ball 19 times.
