Alfred Blue 36 carries for 156 yards.


Ben Tate used to fill in without missing a beat. Tate lost his job in Cleveland.

Foster was average at UTk.

He probably thinks people outside of the south east associate Tennessee with UT instead of Texas

He would be wrong

Arian is real good. An interesting combo of deceptive speed, vision, cutting, power, and catching ability. He's not an all timer, but he's a talented guy who would excel in any offense, maybe inflated a bit by kubiak's ZBS

That blocking scheme is like the Broncos of old.

This. Arian has had his share of wow plays as a Texan that had nothing to do with the scheme.

100% the system?

Are you effing kidding me? Sometimes the level of stupidity on this board is shocking.

it can't be both?

Is Brees really good or is it the system he plays in?

Foster is plenty talented. The scheme helps but his vision at the second level is amazing.

Not sure my 5.1 second 40 yard dash would translate well.

I'll beat your arse at tennis though.

The scheme may help, but Foster is ridiculously good.

If foster was healthy today and got 36 carries, he would have put up 200+ yards.

mallet didn't have an all pro day, but he hit on 66 % of his passes and took some shots down-field ... that had to have helped a bit with the run game ...

90% of the country associates UT with Texas
