[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 194336, member: 265"] Almost all of the good averages Marshall has are based on the first two games. He hasn't had that many carries since he is sharing the position. What I'm saying is that I have yet to see him run through tackles consistently this year. He goes down easily, largely because [I]he isn't big enough for the position[/I]. It isn't a coincidence that Coach's BBs have usually been 220 or better. And, btw, if he tries to get up to 220 or so, he'll lose speed. That's his largest asset. But, like I say, that's up to Coach. I know he wants a home run hitter at the position. Problem = he has to be a home run hitter who can get you 4 yards on 3rd and 3. I haven't seen Marshall do that consistently. As to Lynch: I agree, but I doubt he'll start over Green or Cotrell or Benson (or Marshall). Indeed, if he could put on 15 or so between seasons, I'd consider moving him to BB. He's the only back we've had this year who has actually run through a tackle regularly. If he stays at AB, his lack of speed will work against him. But he'll stay in the rotation. No doubt about that. [/QUOTE]
