Midswat got me again - he likes to editorialize these stories before he posts them. Adds little nuggets like that. Gregory never said that.
You gotta learn not to trust everything the fucker posts. LOL
If you're taking it out to that many decimals, yeah. But the actual difference is nil.
Murray 2014: 4.706
Smith 1995: 4.702
C'mon now. Murray never breaks Emmitt's record without the 20 additional carries he needed to do it.
"Elite" line with NO 1st round picks anywhere in it. They were just a...
Made some good plays vs. GB too. And vs. Washington.
Been watching for him in the DVR'd games.
In postseason recorded 2 sacks, one forced fumble and 2 recovered fumbles and was in on 4 tackles.
He DID produce better numbers, with comparable amount of carries in a season.
Both times Emmitt had over 370 carries, his average was better than Murray's and his TD output was much better, and with far less fumbling. Emmitt also had breakaway TD runs each time of 60 yards or better. Murray...
I got no problem with uncorking a bomb on 2nd and 2, but NOT from empty backfield with 5 wide. This is the spot for the play action out of Jumbo, then uncork a bomb to Dez. They never do this.
But, your point taken.
Hell YEAH you got ME fired up and ready to go knock some heads now!
Except for your ragging on Pablo. Like Laz said, give that high-upside high-performing kid a break.
And by the way, Emmitt Smith himself recently came out, agreeing with Randle about Murray's "meat left on the bone."
The little worshippers will say "Yeah but that's what made it such a brilliant caaaalll! No one was expecting it!"
Yeah, no one was expecting anything that stupid, on 4th and 2, 4 minutes left in a playoff game. We really surprised 'em.
Two night games on NBC - at home vs. the Giants and at Nawlins. We're at Philadelphia for game 2 on a Sunday afternoon, and have the Patriots at home. Right in the middle of all this we host Atlanta.
Of course I realize it's way too early to be thinking about this or making any predictions, but...
That's how you lose when it predictably, doesn't work. Take the fucking 2 yards. Live to fight another play. It's 4th down.
4th and 2? 4 minutes left in the game while trailing?
I would be yelling at the receiver CATCH THE FUCKING BALLLLLLL but would have no gripe about the call. See? You're not even keeping up with the actual issue. You're trying to make it something it's not.
It's about the odds. Look at the pictures. They double covered Witten, so that tells you...
Like I said I admire the balls, but not the calls. Gimme this on 3rd and 2 and I'm not nearly as much against it - because if it doesn't pay off, you have another chance. 4:41 left in the game, we really really needed that first down.
