Calhoun is in no way a scat back, and he is more physical than Counts by a mile. We're gonna be just fine with him in the backfield, now we just need the line to protect Brady and let Calhoun get past the first level.krammer said:if we could keep Counts (our physical back) healthy we would be fine,,,,this is his senior year and has not happened yet,,,so scat backs it will probably be.....

Counts' size and shape make him look like a physical back that runs over people, and he's had a couple runs that go that way...but it's his lifting regime and likely some bad luck genetically that keeps him in the training room instead of on the field. Calhoun is a better power runner than Counts every day of the week.bgbigdog said:brewskis said:Calhoun is in no way a scat back, and he is more physical than Counts by a mile.

Calhoun could be pretty comparable to Frazier in size & skill sets. Had there been better line play, who knows. More physical than Counts? No. I realize Joey sees less & less of the field with his style, but Calhoun is a run to daylight & finisher kind of back. Counts is a run to/over anyone in the way kind of back. That's why he is dinged all the time.
Sorry, didn't see the clock, Friday afternoon, my bad.
I agree. The competition will be good for BG.Griz90 said:Unless the other guys at QB far exceed Brady its Brady's job. If the other guys showed similar are only slightly better ability it's still Brady's job. They're gonna have to blow past him to change the current dynamic. I'm hoping Brady get's a ton of pressure put on him by the other guys and feels like he has to prove himself each and every practice...each and every game. But it is definitely his job to lose.
