Dear god what a complete chickensh!t personal foul on Overshown, at least the D stopped them again. ...and why the **** can our PR not come up to fair catch a ball and insead let it hit and roll inside the 10? That's twice today.
Would have liked a more aggressive D - especially on that last drive by TCU but overall, great game, and Casey didn't do that well. Bijan reminds me of Barry Sanders so much. DD
I don't get Sanders vibes from Robinson at all. He's too tall, too strong. He reminds me of Alvin Kamara. Plenty of wiggle, but on every run he basically breaks one or two tackles. Barry couldn't break tackles well, but that was OK because nobody could ever get their damn hands on him.
I agree with this much more. They had a graphic up during the games showing RB's with broken tackles and all of the top ones were more stronger/power backs. Sanders was like trying to tackle a ghost sometimes. So Kamara seems to me a great comparison.
Sanders also still holds the record for most plays with lost yardage in NFL history. So no, in that regard they are nothing alike. But the cut move right after the handoff I mentioned is similar, that's all I'm saying. Bijan has started what, 8 games in his career and is already a better college back than Kamara ever was, btw.
Bijan reminds me of Adrian Peterson without the top end speed. Very good vision, decisive cuts, good power.
Not good, dang it. But I stand by my Barry Sanders take - his jump cuts are amazing - only other back I have seen do them besides Sanders and McCoy. DD
