[QUOTE="Sideways, post: 315158, member: 2451"] In the Johnson era, Mills is unique. There isn't anyone that compares to him. Dwyer, AA, Marshall, Sims, Days, and Laskey were all very different. Sure they were all "power" backs but their styles were, in my mind, pretty different from what we have seen with Mills. Dwyer and Marshall were faster. AA ran very hard at the point of attack much like Mills but was taller with a longer stride. Mills runs low, balanced, and really pushes the pile much like William Bell back in the day. Bell was also an effective pass blocker. I will defer to others more knowledgeable about Mills blocking. Mills MIGHT be the most physical running back of the Johnson era. His only drawback and its a minor one, is he does not have the burst and second gear that made Dwyer so effective. All of our Bbacks have been effective to one degree or another They are good football players no doubt about it. [/QUOTE]
