  • I'm sure y'all have seen these before, but they're worth watching again.

    ❤

  • I agree. From what I've seen so far, he is the real deal. Tough, doesn't go down easily.

    If Harrison doesn't stop with the fumbles then I can see Hillis getting an awful lot of carries this year. Behind a good O-Line and alongside Vickers, he could put up some very nice numbers.

  • Very good Running BACK hILLIS IS A bEAST 4 SURE.

  • IMHO he should be our featured back. He makes circus catches look easy, bats off tacklers like they're flies (or DRAGS "em if they're persistent), & seems to have a great sense of where that 1st down marker, goal line, & sidelines are. While not blazing fast, he's plenty fast enough, given all his other attributes.

    He gets my vote as the Brown's next GREAT back. I seldom get as hyped up over a player as I am over this kid.

  • For me it went from "we got screwed by denver" to "we screwed denver" real fast...he has become one of my favorites, i love big backs that can move the pile and if he can stay healthy we have endless combination's of lethal ground attacks with our lineup...

    We have been rebuilding since 1964, Why stop now? GO BROWNS!

    You're right. We can throw a lot of different looks out there & we should be DEADLY in the red zone.

  • Yet another example of Josh McDaniels' hubris. He decided early on that he didn't like Hillis and he traded him just like he got rid of Cutler and Marshall.

    I agree 100%. I think Hillis should be our main RB with Harrison being the change of pace guy. I like what Harrison did last season but I love powerful running backs that will wear out a defense.

  • I drafted both Harrison and Hillis. I believe our rb's are going to make waves behind this oline.

  • Great timing to read this since we just lost our 2nd round drafted running back. Hillis has looked very good this year and seems capable of doing anything asked of him. We have had discussion on how many carries he can handle with that running style but that seems to have been a great trade by the browns when we origninally said "Peyton who?"

    You bring up a good point, how many carries can he handle with that running style? Could he be a throwback of yesteryear? or will he be destined to miss action due to his style. This much I know, I'm glad that is our problem to have to deal with.

  • The dude needs a middle-name moniker of his own. I've been calling him Peyton "Dozer" Hillis on the Broncos forums where I hang out. He's actually more like one of those "Bobcat" utility vehicles fitted with a rusty bulldozer shovel in the front end, but "Bobcat" doesn't sound as imposing as "Dozer".

    Plus, there was also that character from "The Matrix" called "Dozer". It took 12 million volts of electricity to bring the dude down!

    By the way, I'm a Broncos fan, but I've lived in the Seattle area since 1987 so I know a little something about your new Big Gun, Mike "The Walrus" Holmgren. He'll be a great addition to your front office and is the first piece you need to turn your team around. I'm not surprised he didn't fire Mangini right away, but I don't think Mangini is your long-term solution at HC.

  • actually in matrix dozer went right down, it was the other guy that survived

    True, but who wouldn't go down after getting zapped by 12 million volts. Wasn't the other guy called 'Tank'?

    Another possible name might be Peyton "Big Bada Boom" Hillis (from 'The Fifth Element').

    LOL, I remembered that line. Just imagine a hot orange headed woman dropping into your sky cab

  • Lets just call him "Ton". Its takes a ton of guys to bring him down and he gets a ton of yards during the game. Im going to go drink a ton of beer now.

  • I think TANK makes sense.....after al...

    Hillis a tank!

    Really? I dunno. Maybe "White Rhino"...but rhinos in general aren't very imposing. They're all about posturing, but at the end of the day they'd rather avoid a confrontation and just go eat their grass (or smoke it -- "Rhino" also means spleef) in privacy.

    I see where they're going with this with the strength and the horn and all that, but good luck trying to find a decent picture of a charging rhino about to eviscerate some hapless victim.

    Now, a "Dozer on the Loose" I can totally see. Just imagine a bulldozer gone wild at some kind of public gathering, with bodies strewn left and right, some of them caught up in the treads, some of them crushed under the rusty scoop.
