Just like Quarterbacks say they can see the play happening before it does, I think with certain running backs it's the same thing. The key to both of their sucess was they both had good offensive lineman blocking for them.I'm not a football whiz or anything like that but one thing I always enjoyed about him and Arian Foster is how patient they were.
It amazes me how calm he was to find the hole then attack. How is that even possible in a game that moves that fast?
