Not in love with Noah running the ball. In theory its awesome, right up until someone puts their helmet on his knee. I’d take 2 years of a healthy Noah at ILB, vs a few TD’s and a chance at loosing an irreparable LB.
It's spring, nobody tackles like that in practice and isn't a scenario that happens with so much frequency as to be afraid of it if he were to in fact earn 3-4 carries a game. Hell maybe we put him in simply for Pass Pro.

Non contact injuries in camp are fairly common. Sean Dollars is out for the year from a training injury. RBs and LBs are statistically the most likely to get injured, ankle and knee injuries from plants and cuts are the most common injuries in football - not including concussions. Noah already gets injured in 50% of games.

I would love to see Noah get some carries in a game though. Imagine a poor soul trying to tackle that beast.

Quotes from the RBs yesterday on the QB job, pretty closes the door on the QB competition:

Travis Dye: “Anthony is doing a really good job. He’s grabbed the bulls by the horn. The younger guys need more time to improve and to grow, these guys are off-the-roof talented. It’s going to be interesting the next few years to see who comes out on top after Anthony leaves.”

CJ: “I love AB. He’s a real leader on and off the field. He builds a good chemistry with all of the guys on offense.”

I love when people butcher common sayings. Makes me feel better about me doing it.

The "roof" sayings tend to really trip people up.

My favorite in recent memory was Michael Jordan saying "The roof is the ceiling!" while speaking at a UNC basketball game.

Reading that Brown has looked sharp today. Also no plays ram from the pistol.
