Look I am not saying Monty can’t carry the ball a few times. He may break off a big one. What I am saying is he and Cobb shouldn’t be counted on as the #2 RB behind Lacy.

They don't deserve a lot of the accolades they receive. And we again are pissing away the career of a great quarterback by not going all in on Super Bowl runs.

The problem with WRs pretending to be RBs is they have to be fast enough to get outside but unless the D completely fails to have someone in contain the WR can't get outside far enough to use his speed. They certainly are not strong enough to run inside and break a couple of tackles.

One hit no matter how weak and they go down.

And unlike so many receivers in this league, he almost never lost possession of the ball while fighting for those last few inches. Even more amazingly, he didn't get hurt either.

If Aaron continues to play at this level I think his chances of making the HoF will diminish.

Montgomery at least gave us more out of the backfield than Starks has all year.

Some may say I am spoiled but I look for excellence not try and justify one level of mediocrity is better than another.
