Color me surprised too. Good for Lacy.

I wonder what's happened to TRich. He's strong and a physical specimen. I wonder if he's motivated properly.

I would've never guessed that ELacy would be the best back that has come out of bama recently.
Go back and look at the 11/5 game. Lacey actually had far better runs that game then Richardson

FIFY

I'm not mad. It's good to see E. Lacy doing good in the league.

A bit surprising too especially with it being the Packers.

Meant to say Ingram and not Richardson.


No problem. We accept you even with your flaws.

There was a faction of people, including a couple of bol mods IIRC, who thought Lacy was better from the time they were high schoolers. Between ball security issues early on and injuries he never produced quite as much as Richardson but he ran like a madman in his last few games at Alabama.

Indeed he did....Lacy had an awesome career. VERY successful college and now professional RB.

T-Rich has all the potential still, but he's in his own way. Had a decent overall game today. He's a good third down back at least.

Lacy is just a beast though.

TRich will still have a better career IMO.

Lacy has had injury issues his whole playing career. TRich is just having a bad and weird year.

Lacy has bee healthy this year, on a heavy workload. He got knocked out of a game and missed the next one because Meriweather does that shite and gave him a concussion, but that is it. He had a bum ankle this week but played and played well.

Somethings just not right with Richardson. Maybe its mental, maybe he has some nagging injuries. I would never have expected him to do so poorly this year. His rookie season was not bad by any stretch and to see him do a lot worse this year is very odd.

Might just be something none of us know. Family issues and not being able to focus. He is a physical specimen and will eventually get through his problems and become the back he should be in the NFL.

What? bullshite. Just about every scout and general manager disagree with you. TRich was considers the most talented rb since Bush and AP. Eddie has outplayed TRich but Don't act like you could see ELacy( stayed hurt) being Better than TRich fom his college career. Every scout and talent evaluator said TRich would be better.

You could always tell Lacy had better burst and better vision, but I don't think anyone other than a few people really thought he'd be better. After the Georgia game I was sold on him being legit. I knew he'd be good, but at that point it really got me thinking "hey, he runs just like a good NFL back".

I also thought Trent was an ironclad lock to be successful, and didn't see Eddie doing so well.

Even as recent as a few weeks ago, I thought Richardson was sure to contribute well in Indy. I don't know what is happening with him.

Trent's problem is he got ripped to the point he lost any type of burst/flexibility etc. But something about him and Mark both they never seemed to take coaching/actually learn how to play RB. I don't if that was because they both played early and often in their careers or what.

It's amazing how bad bama players under Saban have been in the league.

95% of them suck

So you choose one game?
In 2011 TRich had more rushing yards( 1679) than Eddie Lacy had Total Yards from Scrimmage( 1511) in 2012.
TRich almost had more tds, just in 2011) than ELacy had his entire career. TRich never had less than 700 yards rushing at bama. ELacy had OVER 700 yards just once.

Everyone respects Wild Thangs opinion said no one ever. Every Bama fan thinks you're the dumbest LSU fan on the board....so you got that going for you I guess. Congrats on being laughed at and not with by everyone on this forum.
