THANK YOU. I think everyone should get off of Reggie's back. People can compare him to Maroney and Addai and Jones-Drew and all that, but the fact is that his running style was much different from those guys in college. In addition to that, his running style was far more successful than theirs in college. When something has worked for you in college, it's hard to change it, but slowly he is changing his ways anyway.
Besides his maturation process, he still enables the rest of the offense. He enables Deuce, Colston, Henderson, Horn, everyone. Offenses are STILL keying on him. Once he learns how to run N-S more consistently it won't matter though. But if anyone thinks that Colston would still be putting up these phenomenal numbers if we had drafted AJ Hawk you're smoking something.
