54:40 in, am in-agreement with the love for the RB position.

It's muh favorite position and would very much like to play RB for UNT and The Dallas Cowboys.

If anything, it's so underrated and am always advocating for it.

Good interview, very nice, thanks so much!

Was of the mindset of trying to produce plays, but will take this "let the game come" mantra to-heart.

And it's obviously EmmittSmith. DeMarcoMurray (didn't care for MarionBarber and FelixJones, whom DM was the understudy for, early-on). Run-DMC was surprisingly better than what this viewer thought he'd be, but was not a long-term fix. Zeke ran his knees off his body and got fat on that cereal in Mexico.

Outside of The Dallas Cowboys, the likes of ZachZenner, LeSeanMcCoy and DarrenSproles, and AlfredMorris were fun watches (except for when playing against Dallas, of course). CMC used to be, but think he's not as "fun" of a watch anymore, today, at least.

Having that mobile-QB with an RB from Cam/CMC to RG3/Alf to Lamar/Henry, today, is SO f'n crucial and fun a watch, IMHO. Admit to being a fan of that academy-style, "smashmouth" football.

Seriously: Why risk tossing interceptions, either on the QB or up to circumstance from tips/wind/the WR/etc., when hardly anyone actually fumbles the football anymore? Fumbles aren't even counted/spoken about as negative stats for famous RBs going into Halls of Fame, but interceptions haunt QBs to the grave. Why? Dunno, but will take it, at least the inner-ego will. Less responsibility but more down-by-down production/importance per play, and less wasted energy. Think about it: why play WR? What if they don't throw to the WR? That's wasted energy and the next play, one could be exhausted from the burst on a run that they weren't thrown to? Not lazy, just stating facts. The game of football, whatever variation Pop Warner, JV, high school, FCS, FBS, the CFL, NFL, and UFL are trying to purvey begins, and ends, "in the trenches." GMG!
