Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty
I don't understand how anyone could be excited about the "performance" Robinson put out in the last, meaningless drive of a game that was over 2 series before. Would my grandmother gotten the same level of props, because she's dead and I know she could have hit the holes just as fast.
Further, all you MI haters are transparently twofaced when presented the facts that neither Sproles nor PI could run in any game this season either. Face it, it's an o-line and scheme problem, not an RB problem. For some reason that escapes Payton and his staff, nobody, NOBODY is fooled by our pitiful excuses for disguises of run plays. |

Maybe he is the future, but right now he is serviceable as a 4th back and might have earned a jersey for next week. PS- Cadet looked good on ST |

Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty
Not cool to talk bad about the dead.. I believe that Khiry just gives us hope kinda like a shiny new toy when your tired of the old one. Khiry may fall short like MI but I like others want togive him tthat chance.
