FunBunch7 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 The guy looks like Joe Morris of the Giants back in the day. He had a great game against St. Louis last year and then he didn't play anymore. I remember what made Joe Morris special...especially against us in 1986 was that he was so small he could hide behind his blockers. But he is stacked at 223 lbs. Maybe this guy can take 10-12 carries a game...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxSpearheadxX Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I haven't seen enough out of him to second guess the coaches on him. I look at Rock in the same way I look at Mike sellers or James Thrash. Great - but I am not going to hold my breath to get them more touches in a game.

ouvan59 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I like Rock but he doesn't have near the speed or quickness that Morris had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty dread Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Rock had one good game against a horrible Rams' run D. Let's not get too excited over that. Betts is still the better back. I wouldn't feel comfortable at all if we had to go with Rock for multiple starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truant Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Similar to the post above, I love having Rock on the team. He's a good guy and great special teams player, but I don't need to see him carry the ball at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVCChairman Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I think blondie agrees with you....and so do i. i dont know why we havent seen him as a speedy fullback kind of thing on passing downs. I would like to see him in the Power I in front of Portis with the ability to swing out to the flats on play action kinda thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxSpearheadxX Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Blondie, you are funny - what you say is true, but you are still funny with it. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt [Redskins Fan] Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I don't know if you guys missed the last few years, but he's had a decent amount of carries. Allowing the fact that he puts the ball on the ground too much, he's a good backup. Plus he has a cool name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregpeck99 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Rock is a journeyman ... but we love him. He is worth his weight in gold on ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cincyfan Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I was at the Bengals game and if the stadium announcer got Rock's name wrong one more time I was going to go into the booth and tattoo the roster on his forehead!! He was called: Rock Rocky Mark and on one play they called a players name that is not even on the team :mad: Jackie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
