    3) Trent for better or worse is a downhill runner that makes people miss with his size and strength. Clearly that is an effective model (see AP) but even AP gets stuffed when there's no line push. The reason the Vikings are good is because their identity, just like the Eagles, is the run game. I hate to say it but last week looked like another game of Browns football where the coaches had no idea WTF to do on offense. I'd love to see what Trent could do with 25-30 carries consistently.

    I get it, top 3 pick on a RB was high. But the guy dances at the line because there's nowhere to go. I just don't get what you all expect the man to do when 3 guys get penetration in the backfield and the lineman are getting no push.

    Sorry- at this point comparing Richardson to Peterson is laughable. Peterson has a top gear & explosion TR can only dream about having. Sorry if I don't buy the "he was hurt all last year" mantra. Was he hurt his entire college career while we're at it? He got caught from behind several times at Alabama, Peterson and Sanders NEVER seemed to have that problem. Richardson has exceptional field vision- I'll grant him that- too bad he uses it to dance around, to try and find a non-existent hole. If you're a power runner, and the hole is marginal, blast through it dumbass. Saw you do it last year- "Richardson Rule".

    #3 pick on TR was a waste, based on what I saw of his 'Tide years, doubly that Heckert stupidly gave up picks to do so. (excuse me putting on the rearview goggles if there happened to be a once in a generation OG (think he might be a tad better than Cousins?) and a pretty decent CB on the board for the taking) I didn't see Peterson good, Tomlinson good, Barry Sanders good, Jim Brown good, Bo Jackson good (Jackson ran a 4.2 @ 232 pounds, FYI). That, in today's NFL my friend is the only reason to take a running back that high. Trent will not be a "once in a generation" back- MHO is he's going to struggle mightily to even be Ray Rice good- and the comparison starts this coming Sunday.

    Oh well what's done is done. 6-10 here we come.

    I thought the same thing, Ray Rice will end up having a better career than TR.

    I hope we go 6-10, If our O Line doesn't shape up, expect our average 2-4 win season. No QB or RB can play decent if our O Line continues to suck it up.

  • Wow- Went from bashing Weezy to bashing Trich next up we will be bashing Gordon after that we will bash Haden

  • I'd rather address the fact we didn't even try to upgrade our guard positions, when they're the fuel for a running game. Even if Lauvao were healthy, he's still not a good guard and a detriment to the team.

    T-Rich is a capable back and he's talented there's no doubt, he's never going to have a chance if he can't go up the middle without meeting a group of defenders ready to bury him.
