Spindenhall practices in a FULL fashion

[eniparadoxgma]

OK, let me reiterate so I am clear. Spindenhall = tentative runner who has all the physical skills to be great but lacks passion, decisiveness and power. (He has the power but he rarely uses it.)

JD = lazy in the beginning of his career and that is why we got him so late in the draft. But when motivated, which he appears to be now considering he came into camp weighing 20 lbs lighter, he runs with more purpose and drive than does RM and will rip off more big plays than RM will.

I hope I am not being vague.

Okay, so what you're saying is that despite Dwyer's overachieving this preseason you're taking a "wait and see" approach, and will be happy with whoever ends at up taking the majority of the snaps at RB as long as they help the team win?

Got it.

Oh, so that's your take on Mendenhall and Dwyer. Got it. It was so vague before.

I was really looking forward to watching Mendy run with an improved o-line, but as it sits now, IMO, Redman can be more productive.

And you base your opinion on a very small sample size that consists mainly of preseason games?

Can Redman play or is he still dinged up?

I recently read where Redman's ankle injury may very well bother him somewhat for the rest of the season.

It's comforting to know that the Steelers drafted God in the 6th rd of the 2010 draft, so this shouldn't be too much of a problem overall.

thankfully it doesn't always take God a couple of years before he shows up like it has with Dwyer or this world would be in big trouble...

God? We drafted the Father, Son AND Holy Ghost in the 6th... and on the seventh, we rested.

I can't believe I fell for another JD love thread.

It's called "predicting." Shoot, son, I didn't conclude this from some preseason games; I already had this belief as soon as I checked him out after the drafted him. I have been telling every football fan friend I have that JD is going to shock some people in a good way.
