I can't wait to see Mount Ngata Chance swallow rbs alive. When we wear all black it'll be like running into a black hole. [b]Not even light can escape[/b]..

lmao...Those Rbs run in the hole of Ravens with light and all of the sudden, it's blackout!

Cody blocking up the middle plus a slimmer ngata and healthy kindle should be able to create a good pass rush. Id like to pick up a DE in FA just to be on the safe side.

As long as he keeps up his conditioning to be a 3 down player, he will be awesome! Forget running down the middle - not gonna happen with him and Ngata there!

I agree with him. I mean, if he follows up with some more years of his production which is an average production for any decent RB ( like 1200 yds ), I will take the overrated label off of him but with how good the Browns O-Line is and the holes they created last year.......

If you feel comfortable saying Hillis is overrated while carrying Ray Lewis and company literally on his back for 80 yards at a time, then by all means, any decent RB could do that.
Give me a break, he straight punked our defense last season.



Of course I don't see the Ravens sleeping on him this season, they wised up in the second Browns game, but he still did some damage, atleast mentally.

Lol, there's no question that Hillis is overrated. You'll see next season. His production completely tapered off when teams actually knew that he was any sort of threat. This happens every season, a RB gets totally overhyped after a good year.

We'll see. Bump this thread next season when I've been proven wrong. I'm not saying that Hillis isn't any good, I'm saying that he's overrated.

I'm with John on this and he carried Ray Lewis on his back for 80 yards, great way to over hype him even more,lol.

Cody will be great... From the moment we grabbed him I had flashbacks of the old 4-3 Marvin Lewis lead defense with Sam Adams and Tony Siragusa in the middle protecting Ray.... Cody will eat up blockers and allow Ray the freedom he use to enjoy....

Cody will be double teamed because of his size... Ngata and Suggs are double teamed because of their skill levels everyone can't be double teamed so it should create more blitz openings

I don't think his is overrated because people don't think he is a great back they respect that he is a hardworking smash mouth runner.... U don't accidentally run-over, and truck so many defenders on the way to 1,000 yds... Yes many running backs get 1,000 yds every season but he didn't do it on fluke runs of 50+ yds etc.... Will he continue to have that success NO.. because this yr Hardesty will be back to split carries and teams will prepare for him and load the box up better, attack at angles and gang tackle....

He can't be overrated since the players didn't even rate him in their TOP 100 Players.... now Arian Foster would qualify for overrated because it was also 1 Good season (in a know RB friendly system under Kubiack aka the Bronco system) and now he is talked about as a top 5 RB already lol

Even I didn't know how right I was. Totally laughable that this fluke was on the Madden cover for one good season. Now he's acting like he's underappreciated and underpaid, what a bum. Guess he'll have to see for himself what his value is on the open market, because the Browns sure aren't gonna resign him after his "performance" this season.

Kudos to JohnJohnson for that one. I thought last year was a fluke, but I didn't know that Hillis would go right back to no man's land as easy as he has this year. Thats just a shame, I had high hopes for him.

I felt the same way about Hillis that he had a fluke season last season. I mean, its not like his numbers were the greatest either, average numbers for a good RB. The Madden curse lives.

Madden Curse.... [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/bitenails.gif[/img]

But seriously you guys are right. It was a total fluke season last year for Hillis. I can only laugh at all the people who drafted Hillis super high in their fantasy drafts. I avoided him at all costs. Let the Montario Hardesty era begin.

Yes exactly. His overall attitude this season has been awful, even in Cleveland they think that Hillis has let last season go to his head.

Just think about how overrated Chris Johnson was. Running backs often flash with a big season, especially if they get to have an awesome o-line and they're a decent player. Chris Johnson can be a playmaker, but he's apparently not that hard to stifle. Same with Peyton Hillis. What makes Ray Rice so good is his pass catching ability, that adds to his value. He rarely drops balls, and he's so shifty that linebackers can't keep up. He's a multidimensional playmaker. He's capable of being a high level receiver and a high level RB.

For real guys, I believe. Madden has it in for every player who thinks he's hype enough to go on Madden's game cover.
