Except he's not. The whole point is noticing how soft he was. If he was fighting for extra yards, I wouldn't have even bothered to do the broken...
Other aspects such as...? I addressed some of them in my first post. He was a horrible blocker. He almost never caught anything but passes to the...
Yeah, because what would a veteran NFL coach know about what it takes to play in the NFL? As if the Browns' record was Jackson's fault. I mean,...
Uh, no. He carried nobody. He was the worst yards after contact rusher you'll ever see. Horrible pad level and went down immediately on contact.
Fuqua was utterly horrible. 11th round pick from the Giants. Stiff and lumbering. The fact he was able to average over 4 yards per carry his first...
Rocky broke more tackles than Harris. His problem was he had to deal with Harris's horrid lead blocking, while Harris, in turn, got Rocky's very...
Sacks don't define a linebacker. Breaking tackles/making defenders miss/gaining yards beyond what you can get untouched is what defines a...
Nobody here seems to get it. Citing awards someone received is not an argument. If he didn't get awards, he couldn't be "overrated" in the first...
It's not durability when you play as soft as Harris did. And the ultimate question is, why would you want a guy like him to stay healthy? What...
The role of the running back was never to just follow the blocking and go down to the first guy who touched him. Just about every running back in...
Looks like some of the links I used were removed from my post, for whatever reason. Guess there's a limit over here. Here are some: [MEDIA]...
Funny, I see Kolb using his hands in this 1975 picture: [IMG]
Uh, what? That's not true. You do realize these games are actually on Youtube (which is how I did this research), right? Speaking with the...
TL;Dr: Franco Harris was a horrible running back who couldn't break tackles. Emmitt Smith gets killed for running behind dominant blocking, yet...
Yeah, and I'm sure that was because of the softest RB in NFL history, and not because of the Curtain, the trap blocking, etc.
Such as what? Please list these "rules." Harris was regarded as soft when he played. Dave Duerson compared him to a sponge. Jim Brown bashed him...
So by "dominate," you mean run untouched through gaping holes that every RB in football could run through, and go down to the first guy who...
The only reason I say “one of” is Wes Welker also exists. As anyone with an IQ over 80 understands, in order to be a good NFL running back, you...
