Ronnie Brown: the NFL's Best?

He does excite, and he will continue to do so this season. We’ve talked a great deal about the WildCat, but the team won’t stray to far from conventional. Especially the “pond the rock” form foundation. Thanks………

his numbers to Adrian Peterson at the very least.

what the hell man? are you a pats fan?

do you him so much. are you a closet homo?

i just don’t understand why you hate brown so much. it’s getting old.

i have no problem with you not liking brown. that’s your choice. i think he’s one of the best backs to come out in a long time. just my opinion. but different opinions are what make this so much fun. i dasagree with you, but rock on. mr. finster, i could not agree more if you paid me to. by the way, that check better not bounce.

Ronnie is going to have a breakout season this year, going for well over 1400 yards. Ricky will be right behind him.

and with ronnie and ricky both playing it just makes it that much easier for them and our passing game.

 for year’s he was humble with less oline’s, then turned them into names. i’ve seen him up close make a double move in mide-air when he came down two diferent defenders were going in deferent directions & neather one were right. only the verybest entertainer i’ve ever seen!

I believe in Ronnie Brown as much as you can. I say give the ball to him as much as we can …but i dont think thats going to happen. We should have that run first pound em and never stop offense…but thats not how we play…nor is that how we have to play. I feel Ronnie wont put up those numbers because we are not a featured back offense we are a fully balanced team that utilizes a variety of talent . simply for that reason alone i do not see a tremendous 1400 yard season as some are predicting. But pure 5.2 yards a carry I think he can reach that. it’s going to be tough, no doubt about it, but does he have the talent? yes. Does he have the line? (hopefully) yes. and finnally is he that type of durable reach for every yard player? YeS.

So yes i think 5.2 yards is obtainable. But i see a season in which he reaches anywhere around 1100-1200 yards (which is still fantastic)..

So yes I think ronnie brown is fantastic and is a franchise player and do not want to see him go anywhere and 5.2 is somewhat realistic although he’s going to have to overcome a lot of 1-2 yard carries because of pure youth/growing pains.

We just wont give him the carries that he needs to have to eclipse the 1500 yard mark. I want him to get that as much as anybody because he’s my favorite player. But our offense is TWO back not ONE back

The only thing that I will take issue with is the quality of OL that Ronnie has run behind. For the most part I believe that the OL production has been above average since Ronnie has been here. I wouldn’t consider Ronnie a “make you miss” type of running back (Barry Sanders). I also wouldn’t consider him a “bruising” type of running back (Jim Brown). He can’t make a guy miss in the hole and he won’t run a guy over, so the OL has to give him a lane to run. Once he is on the 2nd level of the defense, he is extremely effective. The OL gets him to that level.

Again, nice post. rec’d

do you watch the same games we do?

I think Ronnie is definitely a stud, considering the only two seasons he’s ever been a feature back (college or pro) he went over 1000 yards, and then led the league in total yards from scrimmage before a freak injury. I won’t say he’s gonna go over 1400, because yardage is more about volume than anything. He won’t have the carry numbers to get there. However, 200 carries at 5.0 a pop gets him 1000, and I think that’s perfectly realistic. Ricky will take carries and help carry the load, and I also think we’ll see more of Cobbs this year. He reminds me of Dave Meggett, who Parcells LOVED and took with him from the Giants to NE. Cobbs does the same things.

And I don’t know if Ronnie is the best in the league, but he’s up there. Adrian Peterson is probably the best back in the league, because of his combination of speed, power, pass-catching ability, and vision. And the infusion of very good rookie backs (Forte, Slaton, Chris Johnson, etc) shows that there’s not a big gap at all between the top few backs and the 2nd tier. I think Ronnie’s best attribute is his versatitly. He’s able to run inside, outside, and catch passes or pass block, while some of those backs are only specialists, or don’t have such a wide range of abilities. All-around backs like Ronnie, Peterson, and LT are rare, so I think Ronnie is more valuable to us than a typical 1000-1100 yard back.

real nice uncle finster

his knee injury will hold him back from the player that he should have been. But Ct…..ronnie will almost always make the 1st player miss and he def has the power to run over most defenders. Despite his injury………..Ronnie Brown is a top 5 RB. Tell me whos better????

I think Ronnie is going to be better and with this coaching staff can only get better, especially if our O-line improves. Here’s the thing about the running game, one can argue the run sets up the pass or that the pass can set up the run. In the past the Dolphins were very predictable. If you didn’t know what we were going to run you were blind. But now, things have changed. The Dolphins have been able to keep teams on their toes. Showing you one thing and doing another. This is great because if the Dolphins can build upon their wildcat offense, then teams will have to get ready for too many looks to get a real feel for what we can do. Ronnie was the perfect fit for this offense and I think this season we can expect more surprises. Sure we all expect Pat White to be in the mix, but we really don’t know what Dan Henning has planned up. I do however expect Ronnie to be a part of it. I just hope it’s not just the wildcat, because the Ravens pwned it. I’m not as creative as Henning, but one can expect him to keep the Dolphins flexible and unpredictable which makes Ronnie’s versatility a big threat. Adding more weapons around him will help stretch the field, giving him more opportunities to make plays.

I can’t wait for the season to start!

I love the way RB runs the pill, I just can’t stand to see him – not playing. I have to reserve labeling him great until he can show me 16 plus games a year. With a solid line Ronnie should prosper even more this year.. It’s strange to think how great backs like Payton and Barry could be so awesome with sub standard offensive lines for most of their careers, …could they have been any better?

I am a huge fan of giving credit to greatness for guys who didn’t have long careers but showed enough talent to earn their spot in history. Gayle Sayers is the poster-boy for careers cut short, but you can not discount guys like Bo Jackson, Chuck Foreman, Terrell Davis, Ricky Williams etc.. Rather than a bronze head in Canton, their awesomeness is diminished to mere folklore. It’s sad.

Let’s keep Ronnie’s legacy alive, so when proves it, we can all sit back and say “I told ya so”
