Congrats on your first 100+ game! The talent is there to provide many more games like today from this young man.

Amazing things happen when you shelf the pride and buy in!

Really happy for this guy.

Meh, he had 45 yards on one run out of a double-stack formation which clearly fooled the Arizona defense. His other 16 carries netted 57 yards, a 3.6 average, with several zero or negative yardage plays. He certainly helped us get a win but he wasn't exactly Walter Payton out there either.

Did you check out his OL and TEs? CM had a very nice game considering the defense his was playing against and the linemen he had blocking for him.

I'm glad he's working out. This team was in a dark place when Rawls went down.

Are those the options? Meh or Walter Payton?

Good game, Chris. Good to see you out there running like that.

Michael played great today. There's always someone who will try to discount it for some reason.

Like me. He had a good game but still not sold on him.

Meh, yourself. It sounds like a typical Marshawn Lynch game. :laugh:

It is a typical game for any RB, it is a silly criticism.

I'm not sold on him either. Take away that one run and all I saw was a dude who fell if someone so much as looked at him. Maybe I've been spoiled by Lynch and Rawls, but Michael appears to have very little fight in him after initial contact.

I think he wins you over soon enough. :)

Except for that time they had him dead to rights and he bounced around and still made 4 yards. :laugh:

I think you watched a different game than I did if you saw that. Michael was fighting every play that I saw him carry.

And he has a few nice stiff arms. This kid has more fight and drive in him since he got back

Wow at the negativity. Guess it shouldn't surprise me. I'm not looking for anyone to crown this guy, but considering our line was depleted and we were playing a great team, one would think the last thing people would be here is negative.

Which, shouldn't have fooled AZ, even though it did. There's only been about a handful of times that we've passed out of that formation.

You've posted here before, right?

Of course. And like I said, it's surprising to see people not give this kid his due for at least TODAY. But then again, this fan base has times where it looks like a spoiled rotten 3 year old.

So it shouldn't be all that surprising.
