disappointing game today, particularly from a playcalling perspective, but man, did you guys see Domanick Davis today? His first career start...
27 carries, 129 yards
9 catches, 70 yards
That's practically 200 total yards from scrimmage... he was 2/3 of the offense! And yet again, it's more evidence of the ridiculous amount of importance put on 40 times, size, etc. before the draft. DD was a fourth round pick... but all you had to do was watch a few of his games and you could tell that he is a great football player. Despite his size, he has extremely powerful legs, and while his straight line speed might not blow you away, he has great quickness, which is the most important factor for an NFL RB.
He obviously has a lot of developing to do, but he reminds me a whole lot of a younger Charlie Garner. The size, quickness, leg strength, and the impact as a receiver are all very similar.
