    Yeah I don't see it. Last season was his career playing in the backfield of a high octane Manning offense and also the first time he ever cracked 1k

    By far the best running back in Miami backfield. Protects the football, gets up field and has a nose for the end zone. 3 fumbles on 508 touches, 18tds, 2558all purpose yards, workhorse.

    RBs dont have a long NFL life. Ill be shocked if he is nothing more than average in Miami.

    I hope your right. I think there is plenty of juice still in the tank. I'll be surprised if Knowshon doesn't rush close to 1k, catch over 20passes and score 8tds. I think he's a top back.

    Over five years those stats are not impressive

    Basically you're saying he is an average back that can hold onto the ball.

    That's over 3. His career is not done. I bet he is a top 10 back in the league this season, but I hope I'm wrong.

    It sure is a lot easier to run behind a super pass-heavy offense than a shitty overall offense

    And what's he gonna run behind? That pro bowl of an offensive line they have? Please. I am not worried at all about this move.

    I think he'll be average this year. He'll help Miami but he's not going to be outstanding in my opinion. Solid player, nothing spectacular.

    Not so sure he'll be good. He had manning to lead that offense and put him in the right position. Now he's got Ryan Tannenhill

    Part of that was he could never stay healthy. But like someone else said he's going to a vastly different situation now in terms of QB and offensive line. He probably never saw a seven-man front in Denver unless they were on the goalline, he'll see them all the time in Miami.
