drago Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Watching him last year, pre injury obviously, i was starting to think he may be the best running back in the NFL. He is the example of a runningback "running down hill". Most of his runs against the pats he was un touched but even if guys were trying to tackle him he seems to just go through them. LT was the best RB, but age is setting in, Peterson is great when he isn't hurt...Could the best running back in the NFL be Ronnie Brown? I think it's close but would definately put him in the conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serphnx Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 He's definitely good. I think LT is still the best. He's just injured right now, and always gets off to slow starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhinHater Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 He could be one of the top RB's in the game. I have always thought he was a great RB on a terrible team. With Ricky Williams working with him, we won't know if he is the best in the league. On a side note...I am so glad LT is banged up tonight.

124 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 One great game running out of the College Formation (that will work once in the NFL) doesn't mean anything. Sure he was running well last year, in all of SEVEN games, but he still hasn't stayed healthy (as you bash Peterson for doing) and has had one 1,000+ yard season. I'll talk about Brown as a top back when he produces consistently and can rush for more than 1,300 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have started the thread a while ago, although he hasn't done much this season so maybe i am full of ****. Watching him in all of his 7 game last year, he looked unstopable. This year running behind a nice offensive line, he may turn out to be top 5 in yards and whatever else. Judging him in a talent realm, i have to say he is easily top five. Not many RB's have half the skill set as brown. He's a total beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just relax, take a long deep breath and calm down. You'd think you could at least give Ronnie some credit for doing something that hasn't been done in the NFL since 1923. That's right, 4 rushing TD's and a passing TD, nobody has acomplished that feat untill Ronnie did it yesterday. Suck on it. Yes, I have a different name over there... So what?
