mike sherman wouldnt know what to do with them even if he had them in their primes.

 

Yes, Ricky circa 2001. No to Ronnie.

 

I miss Ronnie, he was better than anything we have right now.

 

Havent missed any backfield group since Csonka, Kiick, and Morris

 

I always liked Ronnie, wish coaches would've used his receiving skills more.

 

At least Ronnie Brown could attempt to pass protect.

 

Cameron did, Ronnie was the second best running back in the NFL 2007 till he tore his knee. He was having a monster season, stats were ridiculous. 602 rushing on 5.1 yards per carry, and 389 receiving yards and 10 yards per catch all in 7 games. A healthy prime Ronnie would do wonders for this team.. Hell, those MJD rumors earlier this year would have helped if they were true..

 

I don't think there's a been a post more worthy of a fist bump since I joined here. Fitting that it gets my 2,000th fist bump.

Right on BDH! :knucks:

 

As bad as Cameron was as a HC, man, do I miss the screen plays we ran that year. That was fun.
Other than that I miss Ricky in his prime. One of the best RB I've ever seen. As a pure runner I think he is an all time great.

 

I'm missing coaches who treat the run game like a worthwhile pursuit, rather than an obligation one fulfills haphazardly and begrudgingly

 

I'm missing Tim Ruddy, Jamie Nails etc more.

 

Williams was a unique talent that would probably be getting decent yardage even behind this line..so yeah I miss him lol

 

Which essentially means missing the 2002 version of Ricky Williams. What a beast.

 

Definitely miss Ricky. Glad for what we had but also long for what we missed out on , so much more was there for him , and us.

Ricky yes why would we miss Ronnie ?

 

Yeah I've said before I wish we could have had a QB comparable to Tannehill at that time, or a team comparable now. I can't imagine Ryan handing off to a back as good as Ricky was back then.

 

I can :)

 

Well I guess I can imagine, I just likely won't see it. Lol

 

2nd best RB and #1 yards from scrimmage. Kid was a monster.

 

Ronnie Brown would be an upgrade over D. Thomas

 

Aquafin has 2 accounts?

 

I think Lamar Miller could be very successful if we had a line that could consistently give him a crease to run through. But he hasn't yet shown the ability to take poor blocking and make something out it.

I thinking finding a back that can be counted on to get tough yards and pass block is going to be a priority this off-season.

 

You'll know your answer if you see a "Do you miss Randy McMichael" thread pop up by the OP.

 

I often wonder why we let Reggie Bush go......and yes, I miss Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown. We have 2 inept RBs

 

Nails from 02-03 was the best guard play I've seen to this day.

 

Ask your coach,.he didn't want the style in his scheme...I agree so I can't say much.

 

Ricky yes, Ronnie hell no..lazy.

 

I'd certainly like the same kind of high-caliber, talented workhorse back in Miami.

Ricky Williams could have been a HOF back if his heart was into it, or he found the right opportunity. The guy just had a gift. The guy went from being a 250lbs. in New Orleans to playing just over 200lbs. when he initially came back to Miami, and went from being a pure power guy to a more finesse oriented guy late in his career.

Ronnie Brown had all the physical talent in the world, but I don't think he ever had the instincts to be a great back. The guy didn't make great decisions, and his power and short area quickness allowed him to turn what would be a bunch of 1-2 yard gains or negative plays into 3-4 yard gains. Once some of his physical skills declined, so did that, and his ability to be an effective ball-carrier diminished.
