All of the talk shows are focused on the running of Laurence Maroney. There is nothing this guy can do that will satisfy some people. The team had 107 yards rushing yesterday, with Maroney carrying 17 times for 43. His production could be better, but you need to look to see where he gained his yards. Nobody ever looks at that. The fact that he was a 1st round draft pick makes him a prime candidate to be blamed for everything. He has a style of running that drives people crazy, but once he gets past the line of scrimmage he can be lethal.
Drafting a running back is a crap-shoot. While listening to a show today, a caller rambled on about all of the backs taken in the draft after him and what they are doing now.
After going to the Super Bowl in 1985, the Pats drafted Reggie Dupard #1 in the 1986 draft. This is like listening to Reggie talk all over again.
