I like him, I think he could lose a little weight and gain some speed though! Glad he didn’t flame out before he got his chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,598 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Miller appears to be a powerful but slower runner than his current fellow RB's. There's a place for him, just as there was a place for Eric Smith. I don't see that place being our starting, 25 carry a game RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re gonna branch out and start critiquing running backs you need to update your profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Smith was a crappy boyfriend and not necessarily the classiest opponent on the field. However, I bet his teammates and coaches loved what he brought to the team. I bet he was hungry and coachable and dependable. I bet he'd be the first guy they'd want in a foxhole with them. I bet they saw the occasional PF as an extension of his passion and grit. Do we want a guy exactly like Eric Smith on the team? Maybe not. Do we want a guy who plays football exactly like Eric Smith on the team? Hell yeah, I do.

Cox is a great kid (young man, whatever) - he's going to try his best to put you on your butt while the play is going but once the whistle blows he's your best friend again.

You can take the kid with the nasty attitude and help him channel it in a way that helps the team, but you can't create that attitude in a kid who doesn't have it.

Reminds me of the Blind Side movie - Oher already had that aggressiveness on the field. He didn't have it coached into him by his adopted family like the movie portrayed.
