Julius why no shake and bake....

[Hostile]

Julius LOST weight during the offseason. They were talking about it during training camp.

There is a difference between weight and bulk. He is not running with the same explosion.

You said "he was quite a bit lighter" last year. That's referring to weight, not bulk.


Evenso, he's not considerably bulkier then he was last year.


The reason he didn't "Shake n Bake" is probably cuz he was in shock that he actually had running room.

He was quite a bit lighter last year. He bulked up too much.

I guess I missed something. Last year, he was initially listed at 215. He came back from his scapula injury lighter than that and looked great. During a recent game an announcer said he is at 207 and Parcells doesn't want him over 210. If anything, he seems weaker this year. I think his ankle and his fear of fumbling are having him run stiffer. He's much less fluid and natural-looking. I look at him (he looks fairly small) and hear his weight (207) and don't see "bulking up" as the problem. Having said that, he DID run harder today.
