Remember him? So, I have a serious question… If you needed one yard to win the NFC Championship or Super Bowl, would you have a play in your pocket to run Micah? Any chance we have such a play? Or hell, maybe Osa?

I’m honestly surprised no teams (that I know of) do it. Those Fridge plays were awesome.

Since he knows about leverage from being a very good wrestler, I'd go with Osa. I'm sure he has a very strong lower body, strong enough to push the pile over the first down marker or goal line.

I’m not about to hand the ball to a player with a championship on the line who’s not a ball carrier and hasn’t carried the ball all season. We already lost one fumble with a guy who hasn’t had many carries this season.

He'll yea, l'd put in a running play or two for him. Everyone seems to forget that he was a hell-of-a RB in high school. It's like saying you wouldn't use a weapon like Deion at WR or punt returns.

Micha said in TC that they had discussed it, but that was a long time ago.

I wouldn't do it, but I pretty much have no doubt that Micah could probably be a 1000 yard rusher if he switched positions to RB.

Micah & Perry aren't exactly apples to apples. Even Osa isn't. Perry was 335 lbs. and the idea was that it would be hard to stop that pure bulk moving at full speed, and he would blow through tacklers. Osa is about 50 lbs lighter and Micah about 90 lbs lighter

Okay, you have a technically correct point, but c’mon man. Micah would be awesome running the ball for one yard.

Why do I get the terrible feeling that whoever it might be, they would fumble the ball at the goal line? :laugh:

Now that we are in the playoffs I would be all for putting Micah in on offense even as just a decoy it would stand defenses on their ear they would not know what to do with that.
How could it hurt to hand the ball off to Micah a couple times a game to give a defense something to think about I think he would be the ultimate decoy

I am totally with that I would love to see Micah and take a screen pass and straight arm a couple people into the Twilight zone.

Hey I guess there's no need to try and get Derrick Henry when we could just bring him over from defense in the form of Micah Parsons.
I might miss my guess but I would bet that Micah would be the best running back on our team if that was his position it isn't like he's a stranger to it

If a chip is on the line, I'm not handing the ball to anyone, I do what we do best and that's passing the ball to Lamb or Ferguson. Let Dak scramble to the right so he can find one of those two open in the endzone.

That’s because you don’t want to give the ball to somebody who hasn’t had it all season when the play is on the line

I'm not letting Micah get crushed by dlineman..but I'll let Mazi. That might be right up his alley.
