You're right PK, the rooks performance in Nashville has been under reported and under appreciated. I say 3 cheers for Steve Slaton !
And maybe most important was that he played with heart. He's already kinda
looking like an offensive version of D-Rob. Small but hits like a truck. Which is cause for concern, because as with D-Rob I'm already worried about his durability because of his size. And as we know, nobody takes as much punishment as running backs.
But just imagine, we've got us a guy who can run over a defender at the goal
line AND bust a tackle and break it off for a 50 yard run. I dunno if we ever had that here ? Of coure the only possibile comparison was Dominick, but he didn't have the long-ball capability of Slaton.
