Shamrock Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Robert Smith is probably a good guide for retirement for backs and that was in 2000 having had a monster year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 If you think the Pepsi commercial is good, check out Marshawn playing video games with Conan O'Brien and Rob Gronkowski. This video makes Marshawn come off as pretty cool, and Gronk is just a meathead. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNpkSyryQz4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The game wasn't over and the local talking heads were already discussing how they'd be w/o Lynch next year. My comment to Hawk fans is that their coaching staff was a group of morons for not using Fred more. I wonder why they bothered to even sign him. He was used a LOT as blocker on third downs and he picked up a lot of blitzes. He filled the role they wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment to Hawk fans is that their coaching staff was a group of morons for not using Fred more. I wonder why they bothered to even sign him. When they handed off to Fred as a regular back, he wasn't able to deliver. In the limited roles where they did use him, he was effective, but not as effective as he'd have liked. You could see the frustration sometimes (Fred's) when he broke free only to get tackled from behind short of the first down when he would have gotten it 2 years ago, even 1 year ago. They didn't use him more because Rawls and Michael, when available, were more effective. The one I'm wondering why Seattle bothered to sign is Bryce Brown, unless Seattle wants to make a point of signing the Bills cast-off RBs and trying to turn them around. As a blocker and a receiver out of the backfield, Fred was very effective for them - 32 receptions on 41 targets, 8 ypa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was hilarious fun, thanks for the chuckles. Marshawn is a fun guy! " lick the gun " When they handed off to Fred as a regular back, he wasn't able to deliver.

3rdand12 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I wish him well. An excellent RB who was great fun to watch. And he has been known to be hilarious in the right venue. Lets not forget what he has given back either. Dude quietly has done some fine work with kids. Big heart. Hope he retires with class. actually i expect him to.
