''We were trying to think of the last two guys on the same team that had 1,000 yards each -- or whether anybody has done it at all,'' Brown said during a conversation with The Miami Herald two weeks ago. ``We think we can do it.''
What a treat that would be to watch! Quite a lofty goal but I like it

It's nice to see the boys setting lofty, but attainable, goals.

Should we be putting on the snooze alarm on this offense ? Are we worried this could be the most boring offense in the NFL ? How do you win a game if they know you are gonna run all the time, and if they stop it....well we are SOL. This is an improvement ?
I thought we needed to find a QB for the future. Hell why not keep Lemon if this is the offense we run ?MonstBlitz likes this. -

didn't the Broncos have 2 guys 2 or 3 seasons ago, before travis henry got there, and before their o-line hit the wall?
im excited. offensive running is my favorite part of the game. we should have an o-line that punishes the defense in the run game. hopefully we're competent enough to threaten a bit with the pass. fasano's recovery and impact will be pretty vital imo. -
That would be great to see.

Sounds like a great plan they have here. Id love to see it happen. If Ronnie wasnt coming off this injury, there would probably be no question at all that its possible. At least I dont think so

I'm really trying to not get to pumped about our season. I know we are rebuilding and we are probably not gonna do as well as I would like, but.....after reading articles like that....I'm jacked up and frothing at the mouth. I believe we will see something special this season with them guys. I hope they stay healthy and drug free. Bring on R&R. Probably the best tandem ever.

It wasn't boring to me to sit back and watch our dominate running attack totally demoralize opposing defenses. It will take the fight out of a team quicker than any passing attack because of the physicality required to execute it.
It also fits well for a team with a unproven QB. I think JB has the intelligence to prosper in an offense designed to be a dominate running team. It will be the perfect platform for our QBs to build upon. Line upon line, precept upon precept.cnc66, Frumundah Finnatic and alen1 like this. -

Actually, Parcells and Co. have stated that they think it's time to reverse the trend of those high powered passing offenses by building a team with a dominate OL and rushing attack. There was a nice article on just this very subject right after Parcells assembled this current Phins Coaching staff.cnc66 and steveincolorado like this. -

ACK!
Only the very organization you play for had the first RB tandem to rush for 1000 yards each in a season there Ronnie. :pity: :lol:
That accomplishment was done in a 14 game season as well. -
The great Dolphin teams of the 70s were like that :wink2:Themole likes this.
