His size and demeanor remind me of Ingram. But I can't help but see Ken Darby with that #34 he wears.

It's incredible to me how fans use Darby as a punchline for poor play. The kid ran for over 1,000 yards in 2004 and 2005. Darby's sub-par performance in 2006 can be attributed to a piss poor offensive line as well as lingering side effects from a sports hernia injury he had suffered.

Going into the '06 season there seemed little doubt that Darby would eclipse Shaun Alexander's career rushing record. Now he's seen as a pariah.
