A glimpse of what Ronnie Brown can be

Couldnt have said it better myself. Hopefully after this week, people are finally going to start realizing the potential this guy has. Im really hoping that the new strength and conditioning program around here is going to help keep him healthy for a full season. I still think both injuries he's suffered were freak incidents, and im hoping he'll be fine the rest of this season. Id really love to be able to watch highlights like todays for the rest of the season!

Run Ronnie Run!!

Ronnie Brown had an All-Pro, Thomlinson -type performance out there today.

That's funny that you say that. I use the same analogy in my column that will get published in the morning.

That's really the only NFL back capable of doing what Brown did today.

i think anyone who really watched him play knew he had the potential. he did it tons of times last year.

I have never had any doubts about Ronnie.I liked him in college and I have liked him as a Dolphin even though some of our coaches have not appreciated him as much and under-utilized him too.

In the end the cream comes to the top and today he has proven again that he is a top 5 RB.

Only injuries have prevented him from being recognized as an elite RB.

I'm 100% positive that if Ronnie were to stay healthy, he would be ranked as one of the best running backs ever.

If Ronnie is around when the next regime comes into town (hopefully Sparano and co. out last Ronnie) I wonder if they will short him too.

He was shorted by Cam early on, and Tony early on, good to see him get the damn ball for once.

Actually Cam worked Ronnie hard last year and was the first guy to push him. He also taught Ronnie how to be a quality NFL running back.

Aqua, I'm praying this regime is here a lot longer than Ronnie Brown is.. Actually I'd like Sparano and Ireland run this team for at least a decade.. I'll take Parcells for a few more years until he decides to take on his next project.. Of course after he "retires" from here :lol:

...another thing we all found out is that Ronnie is a lefty. :lol:

Most of us knew that already :up:

Anyone else loved the fact that instead of just walking in for the TD on his second one, he went right after Hobbs (I think it was) looking to crush him down? :lol: That was awesome!

I think he was referring to the fact that at the end of camp neither regime saw RB as the clearly better running back. Cam in particular took a couple of games to figure it out. That's where RB was shorted. Sparano at least had the injury excuse.

Ronnie fans knew that .He threw for a two pointer in 2006 :yes:

Actually Saban used him several times as a thrower

Dont mean to break up the conversation but i just realised that ronnie will be 28 next year.....he must of been 24 as a senior, that sucks

It's only one play, and only one TD....but THAT is the kind of play that changes a team's psyche. THAT is the kind of play that will make his teammates look around the room during film study and say "damn, now that's a baller". THAT is the kind of play that will be burned into the memories of teammates, forever altering whether or not they manage to dig deep, fight hard and flat out kick some arse when they have a choice of taking what's easy and taking what's theirs to take.

Ronnie has split carries through most of his colledge and NFL carreer so hopefully he is a young 28

I was thinking B.J. Ward of the Raiders all over again. You could tell Hobbs wanted no part of being on Ronnie's highlight reel. :lol:

Ugh, don't remind me. That was Mike Mularky's worst call ever and that's saying A TON!

haha me to..hobbs didnt want any and ronnie didn't go all out because he was already in the endzone. ward was at the goal line trying to stop him. i need to see that again, .gif anyone?

:pity:

im disappointed he didnt get more carries.

OT: i didnt know Sparano was a Seahawk fan.

He's a young 27.

That earlier post is talking about how old he'll be next year (which makes no sense to me...enjoy the here and now)

No doubt, this is what we all thought Ronnie could do. I just don't know what took Sparano so long to figure it out...

Credit due to Ricky Williams. Those plays aren't successful without him in there

I'm not so sure about that. Ted Ginn as the motion guy woulda worked just fine.
