Dear Pettine... Unleash the Crowakan!
-
Unfortunately I don't think Crowell will get the lion's share of carries for at least another couple of weeks.
-
I like what i've seen but its a pretty small sample, Tate hasn't really has the chance to "wow" us yet so calling Crowell our best back is a tad premature.
-
Tommorow please. It's time. I have heard this sentiment echoed across the board lately; Crowell is our best back. That's not to say Tate or West suck, they are both actually quite good. But I believe Crowell is on another plane of existence.
He epitomizes what a Brown should be. This motherfucker can RUN the goddamn ball better than I have seen a Cleveland back in a long long time. Its time Pettine. Cut this fucking animal loose and let him be our tone setter. Feed him the ball early and often with at least 15 to 20 carries a game. He absolutely punishes anyone who tries to tackle him. He has vision, quickness, speed, power, and instinct. Ladies and gentleman we have our very own Beast Mode a la Marshawn Lynch, but only with the potential to be even better!
Come on Pettine. You know its right. Just fucking do it.

Buckeye homer.

Depends on how many carries it takes for Tate to be injured .................... Over / under 12?
-
Crowakan? Yeah... I don't think it should or will stick.

Best "back"? No... not at this time... and it's not even close.
Best "ball carrier"? Yes... and the only play that would even give me pause is the retreating run OB vs. the Ravens. Yes, the play was broken from the get-go, but Crow's reaction to the breakdown was weird.
There a lot more to being a back than carrying the ball...

i get that he's still a rookie and he isn't a complete 3rd down back rt now but he protects the ball better, so far has consistently gashed good defenses, he is undoubtedly the most durable, and he has NFL vision, quickness and strength.
today my definition of "best" is who gives us the best chance to win. and i feel that's the Crow.

Been doing the P90X huh sisky. Looking good.....
-
you know it! yeah i just started this "shirt-behind-the-head" look too...tryin it out.

rewatching saints @ cle week 2...have to admit West is a pretty nice addition as well. kid fights till he's down, gets first downs, has soft hands for a back...
can't wait to see more of Tate and see how much of the Ohio climate he remembers.
maybe i'm just down on him extra because in addition to durability issues he's kind of a dick.
-
I'm not saying that Tate or West are not good to possibly great backs as well... I just think as far as Crowell goes he is the best pure runner/ballcarrier I have seen on our squad in a long time. The dude runs like a fucking freight train.

Please change the name of this thread to Dear Pettine fire the DC

Backing Tate was as easy as 1-2-3... as in 123 yds rushing...
