Ricky getting Colse to 40 Carries tonight! Damn! What's the Recored anyone know?

 

[Jayrok]

Ricky Williams = work horsewith really long hair.

 

[Resik]

not sure, but it would feel nice to score here to give the offense some confidence going into this season.

you mean this is a preseason game?!

 

[tietzjd]

Sorry but 40-148 is increddable. In a leauge that gives points for carrys (40=10) RIcky Has 14 points on the vurge. (Need the TD) To have huge night.

 

[Resik]

talking midseason and to season end. Thats been are problem. We always run into some opstical, last year it was feidlers injury. I dont think Miami could have won the Super Bowl last year, but it would have been nice to give some of the younger players that experience.

 

[XNOUGHT]

Ricky is a better NFL RB then FF RB if that is possible.This guy is a stud, workhorse, and the guy who is carrying his team on his back.Wow, I would trade two 1sts for him anyday!

 

[Mordred]

Record = 45, by Jamie Morris.

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

Don't you kind of have to go for it here if you're Miami? If you kick the FG, BUF can still win with a TD.

 

[Resik]

thats a TD....

 

[Mordred]

Ricky's amazing, but I wouldn't bank on his career being effective for many more years taking this kind of pounding. I don't envy his 50's.

 

[Vroom!]

Gotta be a TD.

 

[cracKer]

Nice tackle by Milloy. Way to get plowed for three yards.

The discussion about Earl Campbell earlier in the game is very relevant.

 

[tietzjd]

If it's A TD that's one hell of a night out of MR williams!

 

[Mordred]

Missed that. But Earl's pretty sad to see these days, that poor S.O.B.

 

[Vroom!]

Big call. Game over.

 

[Resik]

TD... no doubt about that

 

[hove]

Crapola. Only up 1 point now.

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

Listening to Theismann spout off about how Wanny wanted to kiss Williams is the last straw.This crew is THE. ABSOLUTE. WORST.Is there a single person on this board who likes these guys? It's like fingernails on a chalkboard ever week.

 

[Resik]

i dont think any other RB in the league can do that... make that strong push after running the ball all drive... Thats what makes him so good

 

[tietzjd]

Wow. This Might have knock one of the Unbeatens in my leauge out. He was up by 23 with Henry vs Ricky and Gannon. Now he only has a 2 point lead. What a come back for the team that was down 23. I am big for comebacks today. After Faulk and Pepper went down. Late game points by Krob and Coles won the game for me.

You never know.

Yeah, saw something on Earl earlier in the season. He really looked bad. Tonight, they were discussing Williams in comparison to Campbell, and how Williams has tried to become a more versatile runner by shedding some weight. Campbell was a straight-up-the-middle runner all of his career, and that's why he's a cripple. Williams want to be able to avoid some of that contact.

 

[buddyboy]

This is my least favorite announcing team. They talk way too much without saying anything of interest. I have a hard time deciding which of the 3 annoy me the most.

 

[rick6668]

I needed Miami's D to come up big... unreal

 

[Resik]

Did you hear Theisman say.... after week one... and nothing after that.

 

[XNOUGHT]

I cant say enough about what Ricky did tonight.he really showed me the unstoppable talent he has.

To me, it's more a testament to what a commitment to a solid running game will do for your team rather than what a great RB Ricky is. Honestly, he did what any workhorse back would have done in that game. Alexander, Tomlinson, Ahman Green, any of those guys would have posted similar or better numbers if they had 40+ carries in this scenarinly problem is your RB will be dead by week 8 if they keep this pace up.

 

[zoonation]

Ricky Williams just won that game with an awesome blend of power, speed and patience; 42 carries and he looked like he could have taken another 10 easy. What a horse. No doubt he challenges for the rushing title again this year. Buffalo looked terrible, except the D played well I thought. You just can't ask a team to stuff Ricky for the whole second half. The guy moves the pile for three when there is no hole.The Dolphins have just silenced all the "Bills are the best team in the AFC" talk.

What?How many RB's have rushed 40+ times in a game. It's not just gameplan, it's the ability of the back. Give credit where it's due. That was an amazing effort by Ricky.

well you hit the nail on the head that it was an amazing "effort", not necessarily display of talent so much as sheer physical endurance. the dude is a stud who can tote the rock no doubt. btw, is that killer clowns from outer space in your avatar?
