all good points, dayum, like some real convo threads and not rants.

I'll go-

-balance. he isn't breakaway fast or bowl ya over strong. he isn't supah quick. I call him slippery. He seems to move very fluidly in traffic or when tacklers come to him. I'm not familiar with the guy much but I always thought PT could be nicknamed 'Crazy Legs', like Hirsch.

-vision. same thing about when in traffic... it seems he sees ahead where the open spot is (often lotsa traffic in screens).

-blockers. this is a part where Evans N Nicks excel. They really are quick for big guys and can get out in front fast. It was a highpoint for Stinch too.

I think for PT it truely is that uncanny balance he possesses. He must have taken balet as a kid (taken from the Hershel Walker school of training)

I think Brown is going to be good in the screen game as well.
