Patriots add RB Lamar Miller

[Rock Strongo]

jacksons got a career playoff rating of 68. 2 starts, but 68. and his 2nd playoff start was worse than his first.

im expecting 8-8 to 10-6, with or without newton.

i was in that range before all of the opt outs. i might take them down a game or two now.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

i was torn on him. i still think he comes back down to earth, and i dont think his NFL shelf life is very long.

There is that.

We shall see.

Unless he gets hurt he can only improve then.

A lot may be a stretch...

A lot may be a stretch...

i dunno.

i can name 5 off the top of my head without looking

curtis marin (led the NFL in rushing and attempts at 31)
legarrette blount (led the NFL with 18 TD's at age 30)
Adrian peterson (led NFL in rushing and TD's at age 30, not a career year tho)
john riggins ran for 2600 yards and 38 TD's at 34 and 35 (led the NFL in TD's those 2 seasons)
corey dillon had over 1600 yards and 12 TD's at age 30 for NE

it happens, guys have great years at 29+

Exception more than the rule however.

Miller has never exceeded 1100 yards rushing or 8 TDs, 268 carries, and only played 16 games in half of his seasons. IMO, Damien Harris is as much (or more) of a threat to Sony.

 

[THUNDER]

Da Fuque is Lamar Fucking Miller...??????????

 

[Airraidtech]

Well the Patriots have like 42 running backs on the roster right now
It's pending a physical so we'll see but good luck to him. I've always liked the back.

He could be a good pick up. I liked him in Houston. Let’s not forget he had a shit offensive line and a fucking retard as a play caller. I believe he was coming off his best year for us when he got fucked up in the preseason. He could add a nice combo to Sony.

 

[Southieinnc]

yup

a year when a lot of guys have their career years

29-31ish

Then they go to the Jets.....
