Ryan Grant ranks second in the league in rushing in the past month. I thought it was a pretty interesting stat being the Pack are last in rushing offense.

The run game does not worry me.

We have been nothing short of great vs the run.

Wonder why it took them so long to let him run. If he was so good in October, where was he in September?

Canty and Company will own him.

Didn't the Pack throw 31 of 35 plays in some stretch during the Detroit game?

I wonder why it took the Cowboys so long to let Romo play. If he was so good in 2007, where was he 2004-2005?

i dont care who the running back is. no rb is going to have any real success vs dallas. that front 7 is too big and too good against the run. if a team is going to beat dallas, they're going to have to jump on dallas early with the pass, and try to knock romo around a little. which i dont see happening.

the cowboys have gotten better each week, but i think the group thats improved the most, is the OL. every week they come out bigger and badder then the previous week.

pack are good, but they're small. dallas is going to be too physical. only real bump i can see is aaron kampman. i wanna see how colombo holds up.

They were watering him

Tony wasn't good enough to play right away, this explains why he went undrafted.

They handled Tony Romo perfectly... all the credit goes to the coaching staff on waiting till he was ready.

he was obtained from the Giants right before the first game. It probably took him until October to learn the playbood. Then when he did play, he fumbled (against Chicago I think) in his first appearance and immediately went to the doghouse. He hasnt fumbled since....

Packers could care less about the run. They are a passing team that utilizes the short passes as their runs.Typical WCO. They only give the ball to Grant after they spread the defense out in defending the pass. Look for the Packers to throw it 50 times Thursday night....

NObody questions the Pats running game and they pass, pass, pass almost as much as Green Bay does....

I believe they traded for him in mid-september, he was on the bottom of the Giants depth chart prior to that.

If you don't think Ryan Grant looks impressive, you're either blind or being a homer.

He's big, fast, powerful, has good balance and vision. He'll be their starting back for the next 6+ years.

Don't be so sure about that. Many of us thought the same thing about Julius Jones.

Good point. But Julius has basically just his speed and one move -- the sidestep to the left. Otherwise, there's nothing really remarkable about him.
