Not if his competition learns how to do something other than arm tackling.

Did you ever watch his daddy run? The only way you could tackle him was try and arm tackle him...that dude made people look down right silly...and that was when he was in the NFL...

Funny, as soon as I put that up I starting thinking back on it and you are exactly right.  You watch replays even today and you just think to yourself, "you bunch of dumbasses quit stopping your pursuit of him and just tackle through him".  he used to make a whole bunch of people look real silly and that was while playing for the lions.

Funny you should mention that.  I just saw Fred Talley run past my window a few minutes ago, followed only by seconds, Dontarious Thomas.
