BEST BACK IN THE DRAFT? I'll try not to gloat too much about the Patriots' season-opening win, as it was far from spectacular. What was spectacular, however, was rookie running back Laurence Maroney. And I'd like to point out this one little stat, comparing the Pats' first rounder to a certain other first-round RB:
RUSHING ATT YARDS AVG LONG TD Maroney 17 86 5.1 27 0 Bush 14 61 4.4 18 0
Oh, and Corey Dillion didn't look too bad either ...
RUSHING ATT YARDS AVG LONG TD Dillon 16 73 4.6 11 0
Now if only the Pats could get some receivers ...
