Tuggle'2 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 I said on many an occasion that he is fully capable of being a #1 RB in the NFL and all the stuff that goes with that. He is an extremely talented, tough, driven young man. People just needed to get passed the size for one, but the main thing they have to look beyond is his demeanor. He is a truly humble, low key, kind of guy. He never asked for the feel good story that came along with him. It was inevitable it was going to come out though. I do think that people saw the soft spoken, smaller than average RB, and thought a little less of him and his abilities because of that. What he shows in public is his honest to god persona off the field. He is just an all around really good guy who came from basically hell down there in Miami. When he gets on the field though he is a completely different person. While still being a 100% team first person regardless of situation, he is extremely competitive, angry running, strong RB. I am just happy he finally got his chance in a real game against one of the better teams in the league to show up and show the world and the doubters whats up.

wleggett Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 No you know what KOG... You've inspired me. If you can embrace Freeman then I vow to try bacon and broccoli the next time Freeman goes over 100 yards rushing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL...I will forever be mad with you on not telling me he was a volume runner man...and no you sold him to me as a RBBC runner.No you know what KOG... You've inspired me. If you can embrace Freeman then I vow to try bacon and broccoli the next time Freeman goes over 100 yards rushing.Better get your dish ready for next week bro. I think Freeman may just break records.

Guest facelessman07 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Well, it starts with something called consistencyIf he can CONSISTENTLY do this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungHeezy Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Not to put a huge damper on the party, but ... Free's ok, right? He looked shaken up after his final run and Ward came out for the final victory formation snap. After what I saw today, need that guy at 100%!!!I saw it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuggle'2 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 LOL...I will forever be mad with you on not telling me he was a volume runner man...and no you sold him to me as a RBBC runner.Better get your dish ready for next week bro. I think Freeman may just break records.I said I was happy to see him as a RBBC runner mainly because I absolutely love Coleman too. I think we have two amazing RBs and we'd be stupid not to give them both their touches. Yes, I am a bit of a FSU homer. That never once clouded my judgement on either guy though. I was perfectly happy with whomever they decided to declare the "starter" because it would be really by name only. When all is said and done though, I am just happy to see the running game going. I am happy we have these two young backs that are both hungry and ready to take on the world. It feels good to be a Falcons fan who loves the run game again.

Each back knowd they have to produce at all times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuggle'2 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Change it up now...lol!!! :PWell that is pretty much verbatim of what I have been saying since we drafted Coleman. Once we did, I definitely conceded that we would be using both of them because like I said, we'd be stupid not to. Either way, I am just happy man. I love our running backs!

Tuggle'2 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Look at him vs Teco the previous 2 weeksNuff saidWhat are you talking about? He was out the 1st week and obviously still tight and rusty trying to shake off the residual effects of sitting out with a bad hammy pull in the second week. He did exactly what I said he would. He worked his arse off and shook the rust off and showed everyone what he is capable of. Trying to find a way to slight what he did today in anyway is just asinine, sorry.

Guest facelessman07 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I asked was the run blocking good. Devonta showed what he can do with good blocking todayBetter than some of you would like to admitWhen 1 back is averaging nearly twice of the other you can't simply blame the blockingAs I said before, consistency. I hope it continues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have guys who are wrong about everything they say trying to come at me...lol. I even have other clowns trying to call me a hater. The game he had was refreshing, we haven't had running numbers like that i na long time. Let's enjoy it for now and next week is next week.

Tuggle'2 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Where did I try and slight his effort?I just said we needed consistencyI don't see an issueMaybe I perceived it wrong and if so I apologize. It looked to me like it was a way to take away from the game he had today and not taking any actual context of the first 2 games into account when comparing him. I am just a person who totally believes in the whole picture and not little snippets here and there when basing an opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
