We don't have another player on offense that play's with the attitude and heart Moreno plays with. You could tell though it started to spread to some other guys. Miller started running harder, Wallace showed a little fire after an up and down day, and the OLine lives blocking for a guy that runs hard like that. I pray he stays healthy all year. Biggest off-season pickup IMO.
So happy w/ Moreno and his hard running. He brings a lot of heart. I know Miller ran harder because of the example/competion. Moreno really bringing professionalism to the backfield.
So true. This guy's career seems to be exploding past couple years for whatever reason. Crazy. Awesome for us. A young QBs best friend right there.
He could be our Marshawn Lynch...played good but not great with his first team, gets traded and becomes elite with new team
He is the type of player this team had needed on the offense for several years. He fights for every yard and he is a true leader just by his actions on the field. He also is going to make a better RB out of Miller, who actually ran tougher today than he has since he entered the league. As you stated, his attitude on the field makes the OL want to block for him. If he can stay healthy, Moreno could end up being the best free agent signing for this team since Cameron Wake.
Couldn't have said it better myself. He was the leader of the offense today. Wake's play did the same for the defense. It was as if those two guys fed off each other, then the whole team followed suit. Been a long time since we've seen that on this team.
No doubt he was amazing. Player of the game. Likely to be player of the year for Miami if he keeps that up.
Brandon Albert was quoted as saying Moreno had the offense fired up. Moreno was then quoted as saying he didn't remember his TD cuz he was so jacked up, even after the game. Love this kid!
Proving last year was not a product of Peyton Manning! Moreno put the team on his back and showed an inspirational amount of passion doing it!
EXACTLY..he is sort of the Cam Wake of the offense Dude has a motor that will not stop, hat tip to Moreno
Hopefully if he continues to play at this level, the Dolphins front office will sign him to a contract extension before he enters free agency. I understand them signing him to a one year contract in the off season, but right now he looks like a player this team needs for more than just one year.
I haven't seen such an inspired performance from a RB since Ronnie/Ricky's heydays. Last time I saw the running game look this good was Ronnie blowing up the Jets and the Pats Wildcat game. But I haven't seen a RB run like Moreno did today since Ricky's 2002 monster season. Not saying Moreno is going to duplicate that kind of season, but his style and what he brings to this offense is very similar.
He was dominant…and the o-line was great. When we get Pouncy back…if Moreno can keep them fired up like that this offense could be pretty damn good.
Daryn Colledge @DarynColledge71 · 7m Big division win today baby!!! Thanks to the Phin nation for coming out so strong!!! #PhinsUp #ProtectTheHill
I haven't seen a running back on our team run as hard, with attitude and determination like Moreno did today since prime Ricky Williams... I love it..
I'm not trying to take a thing away from Moreno because he was a true stud, and he made several plays completely on his own when getting git in the backfield. The line played extremely well though for a new group and that will make all the difference in the world moving forward. Since the run opens up the passing lanes, this is a tremendously exciting opener.
He was a lot of fun to watch when he was at UGA and I wanted us to get him when he came out. He didn't start out as good as I thought he would but maybe he just needed a change of scenery. I hope he can keep it up because he can change the whole makeup of the O if he does.
It's funny I don't get quickly discouraged when I'm at the game like I did if I'm watching it on the TV But then again I'm pretty liquored up at the game
You also hope you didnt waste money and time at the game. Ive had tickets given to me by family members to games we wound up losing and I still felt I wasted my money. ITs definately different at the game, youre also surrounded by other fans who are just as wasted who want the team to give them a reason for being drunk and wasted at the game.
