Madden was talking about how Maroney doesn’t hit the holes and drive the ball up into the line. I agree with his assessment save for the final drive when Maroney was the featured back and he did hit the pile a few times or go off tackle and picked up yards. I just don’t trust him not to fumble though.

Morris is a nice option though....

Maroney is wonderful when he gets an opening...but he gets nothing, or just a yard far too often. Last year I enjoyed his runs when he got past the line, but overall I’d say until he gets that short-yardage game to at least a mediocre level, he’s over-rated. He’s still a niche back.
