Uh, our previous RBs were not exactly doing that at a high level. At least Montgomery showed he'd stick his nose in there inside the tackles instead of bouncing it outside 9/10 times like Starks does. The only thing Monty did wrong at the goal line was not reach. He got plenty of push but he didn't reach the ball out, he does that it's a TD.

Even then there are different types of RBs and not all of them are pile movers and goal line type backs. Montgomery looks like a fantastic 3rd down/ change of pace type with big play upside. I don't see any reason to poo on him as a RB just because he's not the 3 down bell cow type power back. The simple fact of the matter is Montgomery lined up in the backfield = a bonus to our offense.

Given his talent and ability to play both RB and WR, could Montgomery be bigger and more powerful yet a little slower version of Darren Sproles?

I'm more then happy with what he did yesterday. He was a FORCE on the field, and a threat as a RB or receiver.
He earned his pay yesterday, as did Adams.
