That was Dorsey, no?

No that was Aldridge...and it was impressive. Barry Sanders impressive. It showed how a speed back could help us. We need one big time.

Easy on the Barry comparison's....lol.

It was Alridge, and was pretty awesome how quickly he could accelerate from a stop. The fumble sealed his fate, so hopefully they are taking a long look at Dorsey. Rock was his usually self, steady and unspectacular. I would still prefer using DThomas at KR, especially if Kelly wins the #2 WR spot.

Not comparing him in general..just that one play. Very Barry like. But I don't think he makes it either.

Just messing bro....I just see Barry on a totally different level than everyone else.

Oh ok was that on a catch then? I was just looking at this rushing numbers and he only had 1 for -3.

Despite the fumble I think he still has a shot at sticking. That's something they can continue to work on with him.

Yeah it was on the 2 minute drill Daniel ran and he caught the little hook route in stride and stopped dead on a dime and ran the opposite direction. Now granted the two jabronies who left most of their dignity on the field because of it were probably fodder and clearly not so fast but still it was fun to watch. Then he ran around the defense and down the sideline and out of bounds, No one ever touched him. HAHA.

175 lbs seriously concerns me for that position. almost prohibitively so.
