hawkeye Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Could he score the winning TD on MN against his old team? Would be nice. If I remember right he is a hard runner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember right he is a hard runner.IMO- we picked this guy up becuase he played for the Saints and may give us some valuable information. I don't think we have any intention of playing him unless all of our RB's go down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OustRayDaMayor Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Stecker was an OK back, but he never separated himself from the other guys. He could be of small value to the Falcons on gameplanning, but that aspect is extremely overrated in the NFL. Teams change weekly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be of small value to the Falcons on gameplanning, but that aspect is extremely overrated in the NFL. Teams change weekly.I agree. He had a nice YPC last year on only a small number of carries. He's an old and oft-injured running back. Game planning is kind of overrated, especially when you have the tape of all the games he played in anyways, so I don't know how much information he would have. It will be interesting to see if he gets any play time on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris D Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Norwood is questionable, Turner isn't doing crap. Need someone to backup Snelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unconquered. Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 They've already said Snelling is gonna be playing alot of full back. So don't be suprised if you do seem him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't much that he'll be able to tell Smith that he doesn't already know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice1974 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I think hes just more of a change of pace back, that has experience, and can fill Norwoods spot for however long hes out, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
