I don't understand how Maroney can get such high acclaims nationally and locally. He has proven to be fragile, only has two career 100 yard games, has numerous rushes for a loss,and dances behind the line far to much instead of hitting the hole. I for one have not been impressed so far and think he is way overrated to this point in his career.

This is not good. In a game like this, we certainly need Matt and need him to be at his very best! Look out Tom, they will be coming for you.
