Concerning Bell...“His mindset is always focusing in on assignments and he hasn't had a mental error the entire camp, which is rare. I've never in my 16 years in the league seen that happen.”

Only thing I hope is NOT true is the experts who compare Bell's game, and style to that of former Steeler RB Tim Worley.
Worley was also a very Big ( 6ft, 2, 230 Lbs )...who like Bell liked to side-step, and use his quick feet, rather then just use his size to Ram into Defenders. I don't know about alot of you, but I remember Worley, and even though his career was derailed by Injury that he never really recovered from, I still never liked his game/style. He was all fluff. A sissy boy. Never ever liked to take a hit. I remember seeing DB's who were maybe 155 Lbs at MOST totally blow Worley up at the Line. But even though Bell has the same size and traits. I also see Bell more then willing to Hit a defender if he has to. So as long as he can stay away from the Tim Worley comparisons....I will be fine.

Anyone who has ever watched Bell run realizes he is no "sissy boy". The guy can flat out run over guys...but chooses to use his feet to avoid unneccesary contact. He knows how to get yards, protect his body, and will still lay down the hammer when needed. He is the best back we have had here since Bettis.

Wasn't there another Steeler RB that was criticised for going out of bounds to avoid contact? Who was that gu? Oh, yea- FRANCO HARRIS!! I'm not saying Bell is the second coming of Franco, but to me that's just as easy to say as saying he's the second coming of Tim Worley.

That had nothing to do with his game son. Facts are both Worley and Bell are exactly the same size...Worley was much faster though..I remember him timed at 4.37 in the forty. But they both relied on their feet, rather then their strength and Power.

I really don't think b/c they have the same size that you can make any comparisons. Size is one thing, mentality is not measured by a man's size.
