this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; i'm not saying reggie is going to carry defensive tackles on his back into the end zone; i'm just saying that he's a very evasive guy and he is much stronger than he looks if ur going to go by ...

if ur going to go by weight then in that case westbrook must be easy to tackle too because he weighs the same as reggie. what about adrian peterson? he weighs about 10-12 pounds more than reggie. tiki must have been easy to take down, since he not only weighs a hair more than reggie, but hes 2 inches shorter! see where im goign with this? ps: actually, reggie gets the most yards when he runs up the middle. |

Back on topic.

Is the pattern clear?![]()
For the second point, you said that Reggie gets most of his yards running up the middle. What? Reggie gets his yards in space, where his elusiveness can be employed. He gets his yards via trickery (draws, delays, end around, pitch out, etc) or via passes to the flat, screens, etc. He's not a power runner, never has been. He's just not strong enough to do the type of work Deuce or Pierre does. But back to my original point... if he'll just fix that, just work on the weights instead of doing this free-floh-doh crap, then this kid will be truly amazing. He'll realize his full potential - which will make all this Mario talk go bye-bye. |
