Wow, that's really awesome. Lynch seems to reach full beast mode once he gets out into the opponent's backfield.
The main difference between the runs for me was that I was sure he had stepped out of bounds this time, so I wasn't nearly as excited while it was going on. Then, on seeing that he hadn't stepped out, I realized what a great run I had just watched.

Very interesting seeing these plays side by side. Marshawn is not as fast or fluid as he used to be . . . but his vision has improved over the years. He also looks bigger and stronger than he did four years ago.
He's not just running through tackles (although he still does more of that than anyone in the league), he's also eluding them better than he ever has by finding the hole faster, cutting around guys with more precision, and breaking into the open field. His improvisational skills continue to sharpen with age. The first play is pure rock n' roll, the second is more like jazz fusion.

Lynch has looked increasingly athletic with each passing season the last four years, which has coincided with him showing up to camp lighter and in better shape than he did the year before. Even as his body is showing signs of mortality, his athleticism has actually gotten more explosive and freakish. 2010 Marshawn almost looks like Eddie Lacy in comparison.
What an amazing RB.

It looks to me like he's gained back some of the weight he lost during the off-season. While he is certainly lighter than he was last season, I can't say he looks slimmer or faster than he did from 2010-12. That's just what tends to happen as we age. I think he's made up for it though with superior vision, anticipation, and field awareness, not to mention his improved blocking and receiving skills.

That is amazing. Particularly how, at the middle, there are 2 of the same moments almost at the same time.
