I love the idea of Legs playing fullback. I remember in the san diego game in 2009 when legs lined up at fullback and mendenhall ran for an easy TD.
I just spit my pop on the keyboard.
No, only in goal-line situations.
C-town
I agree, Legs most likely would only see duty at FB on short-yardage and goal-line situations.Quote:

In goal line and short yardage, I could see it...
In the open field, I could see a pony backfield with Redman and Batch or Rainey...Redman did a little lead blocking and also carried the ball in certain formations as a FB...
If you put in that pony backfield, it could give opposing DCs a fit...
I put this out there a few months back. I like the idea. Perfect build and he gets the game.
Fortunately, I had just finished my drink.Quote:

What about big John Clay?
Lets face it, he's a lineman, not a RB so only situationally. Still wish we would have checked out Leonard Weaver when we had the chance....dam you Arians!
Wouldn't it be ironic if we finally saw the pony package BA talked about every year as soon as he leaves?Quote:
