For Those Who Think Brooks is too Small to be a 3 Down Back...

Then got paired with Cam and they read zone.  Got to think he would have logged 3 straight thousand yard seasons in that window but Cam was going to get his in that O

I swear I thought stewart and dwill both had 1000 yards one season.   And that offense should have been unstoppable circa 2011-2015ish.   Not sure why they didnt load up on oline help during those early cam years with all that running firepower

Got to think it was top 10 run game all those years without looking.

They are very different backs.  I don’t think folks understand the difference between north-south back and all purpose back.

Jonathan Steward had 1.3k receiving yards in 11 season.  Gurley who Brooks resembles to had 2.3k yards in 6 seasons (1.7k in his 3 season before he got hurt)

Well yeah, and with this QB a pass catching back that can get his rushing yards is the right move. 

That I think Tampa Bay game where J Stew and DW ran all over them the whole game was a high point.

Double trouble was amazing to watch.

Yep. And whenever that game was where Fox said we are playing in the Wildcat basically that is the entire plan.

They did in 2009. That was the only one though.

I can still remember watching that game - one of my favorite all time.  It was a prime time game wasn't it?
