OFFICIAL SLIGHTLY IRRATIONAL KOLBY SMITH BANDWAGON THREAD - Page 2

Thig Lyfe · 11-25-2007, 04:08 PM

Yes, it's one game. Yes, it was against the Raiders. Yes, we lost.

But what I saw from Kolby Smith was running that was far more inspired than anything we've seen out of LJ all year. Remember, LJ was awful in his first few games against not-stellar defenses, but developed out of nowhere to become a fantastic starter.

Kolby Smith has to start before even getting 9 carries in a game and explodes for 150 yards and two touchdowns. The start of his career is officially already better than the start of LJ's career.

Now that LJ has faltered, I think we'll see Kolby eventually establish himself as a legit #1 back. It may take a while, but Kolby is going to be to LJ what LJ was to Priest.

This sounds like jumping the gun to some, and completely moronic to others, but if you had said LJ would be a dominant back after his 10 carry, 21 yard performance against Tampa Bay in 2004, you would have been mocked.

Keep this thread handy in case I need to be mocked or bitterly congratulated later.

Pregame quotes from the Duck:

Betcha he'll end up with a buck fifty.

Your rushing attack will look good against Oakland and Planeteers will be posting "Larry who?" in the game thread.

Problem is.... you won't really know what you got until he has to play against a real defense.

Oh, and we're looking at the NFL Rookie of the Week in all probability.

The kid has good instincts, follows his blocks well. That said Oakland makes a different running back look All-Pro every week.

Two words. HUGAR & SPEED.

Smith is hungary, not got the big payday yet, and he is much quicker than LJ. Some of those cuts he made today were just sick.

I'm on the bandwagon baby!

Wouldn't it be ironicalish if Kolby showed he has the skill to be a premier back after we spent all that money on LJ and not on an oline?

Oh, that would be ironic if that weren't exactly what we should and do expect from Carl.

He definitely proves that you dont have to spend a high pick on a RB.

Wait, or did you mean the Icelandic word for "done or made by the mind"? If so, that's awesome.
