    Bryce Brown

    I think everyone knows his story by now, my question is how good do you think he is?

    I do question why he didn't see the field at Tennessee or Kansas State. Character issues and sheer laziness I guess?

    He has excellent vision and moves fast for a guy that's listed at 223. He reminds me of a slightly bigger and faster Frank Gore.

    Why was McCoy struggling so much earlier in the year and now Brown is running wild? Vick/Foles affect?

    And if you're the Eagles, which one do you want to keep down the road? Obviously we haven't seen much of Brown but he's run wild in the last 2 games.

    Always had the talent but had the maturity of a 12 year old in college. Couldn't handle not being the guy from day 1 and it really wore thin on two different coaching staffs

        Needs to be able to hold onto the ball better, if he can do that and keep his attitude in check I think he can be really good.

            Brown or McCoy is laughable, now the price a team may pay for Brown, another win for the Eagles.... Most HB's are special if they get to the NFL, Brown showed up, he played when asked to... I still remember so many HB's who had great spurts, keeping it within the game... Julius Jones... remember when people thought he would be special?

              I never thought Julius Jones was that good, he looked like an average back whenever I watched him. Averaging between 3-4 yards a carry most of the time and never breaking any tackles or long runs really. Brown looks better than Julius Jones ever did. Julius Jones never ran for 189 yards. He also wasn't much of a receiving threat.

              Not saying he is one of the best running backs in the league already because we obviously need to see a larger sample size but he's looked really good so far. I like his vision and ability to cut back. He is able to pull away from defenders and get around the corner a lot more often then I think he should. You can tell he knows how to run the ball, he really does need to tuck the football, though.

                  Won't matter how well he runs if he can't hold on to the fucking ball!

                      Brown is carrying me to the fantasy playoffs off of the waiver wire. I'll deal with a few fumbles if he keeps putting up crazy points like he has been the past few weeks.

                        It's unreal how he doesn't seem to even think about protecting the football still. He's brain dead.

                          If the kid can learn to hold onto the ball, he will be Arian Foster 2.0

                            The Eagles are pissing me off so much this year that I pretty much refused to watch tonight's game ... and they rewarded me with that 21-point Dallas 4th quarter. Damn.

                            Bryce Brown doing that behind that crap O-line is a miracle. The fact that Reid called more than 20 running plays a miracle.

                            Not excited by Nick Foles at all. He seems like a decent, average QB with good size. Nothing about him cries out franchise QB. Vick is a potential franchise QB killed by a Pop Warner O-line. When the Eagles had an O-line, Vick was fine.

                            As for Brown's future, IMO the Eagles keep both backs and see how they do as a tandem.
