DMN Blog: Bigg wants to run the ball

Bigg Davis was reminiscing about his days as a fullback at Wortham High in the locker room today. He claims he broke a 75-yard touchdown run as a 330-pound sophomore.

"I ran through the hole, broke a tackle and just got to the sideline and was gone," Bigg said with a huge smile.

Jason Ferguson, listening on while sitting in the neighboring locker, called bull. But I believe Bigg and think the Cowboys would be crazy not to get the ball in his hands.

I suggested a play where the Cowboys load the left side of the line by moving Marc Colombo next to Flozell Adams and leave Bigg uncovered. Play-fake left and Bigg would be wide open in the flat, and who's gonna want to tackle him once he gets a head of steam?!

"Or I could pull and get a handoff on a counter," Bigg said, promising to pass these suggestions on to Jason Garrett.
