LBell was always nimble, even at 235+ in college. The smartest thing he ever did was shedding about 20lbs. That's what made him the star he is. If Hill had half a brain, he'd drop about 10-15lbs and he would improve dramatically. He's just too slow out of the gate to hit a quick-closing hole. But noooooooooooooooo. Pitt has to get the smart one...
I'll gladly take Cook and run he and Gio #1 and #2. Of course, now that he's the one i wan't, it's pretty much guaranteed he'll go somewhere else and be a star. Rex or no Rex, i really don't care.
The biggest difference between Hill and Bell is vision and the fact that Hill tries to run like a scat back
when he is not in the redzone. He has an identity crisis. He is screwed up in the head mon. I don't believe
the weight is the prob with Jeremy. He needs to run like a power back, that is who he is.
He just has a scat back identity without the quicks.
This is why we need Rex back, he has great vision, he is quick, catches the ball out of the backfield and
runs the ball hard every play. Rex right now is our best RB by far. Bring him back.
