Without a doubt, he is the best part about watching Browns football this season, and for a long time.  Just about every week there's at least one, "Oh my God!"

Too many Broncos highlights for my taste. Once I saw him in a Denever uni I was hoping it would end with a Quinn int in a Broncos uni.

That one is almost as much fun as the Jim Brown highlights I watch some times when I really get to missing real football played as Paul Brown intended.
He's going to make it really difficult for Hardesty when he returns next year. The bar has definitely been raised.

I wish there was someone who kept stats on yards after initial contact ..... because Hillis has to be damn near the top of that list.

Niiiiiiiiice!
I was hoping the creator was going to add the completed pass to McCoy and a few other plays from the Pats and Saints games (and drop the Donkey highlights).
Even with my complaints.....still freaking awesome!

Looks like this "ham sandwich" brings his own mustard, eh? How's everybody doing with that Quinn trade? Missing our "franchise QB" yet?

Can't help but continue to watch the one where he leaps over the Falcons player... If you pay attention closely you can almost see the bewilderment on dude's face... like "How the did I just miss that?
The fact that he starts looking back after he missed sells it... too

It has to be mentioned...

This seems like a good place to revisit Akronjoe's predictions....which may go down as one of the worst of all time here. Quote:

True, but in all fairness, Akronjoe owned-up about that one some time ago and has scarfed down more than his fair share of crow over it. Perhaps we can let this one go, eh?

I swear I'm not nitpicking, but I wish people (media) would give more love to that play where trucks Roy Williams. The look on Williams face after was priceless.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

I like the trucking of Keith Rivers and Roy Williams of the Bengals. And the driving back of Dawan Landry of the Ravens.
But really, picking one specific highlight is hard. They're like your kids, you can't pick your favorite. They're all your favorite.

I've been all over the Juggernaut nickname, but it doesn't flow all that well. My wife came up w/ this one: Pey-Load.  payload : the explosive power of a warhead, bomb, etc., carried by a missile or aircraft.

The Sports Guy Bill Simmons has been trumpeting "Avalanche" as a nickname for Hillis because, "he's white, he goes downhill and he leaves a slew of bodies in his path."

I don't post much as I love reading the various insights on this board and most of you say what I would have said. However, Hillis, amongst other things, has made Sunday evenings (I'm in the U.K.) something I now look forward to. Mangini has to take some credit for that but this is a Hillis thread so I'll abstain. This guy - and the trade that got him here - are probably the reason Dick Turpin is laughing in his grave. Hillis, Vickers, the OL, embody what I love about football. That type of football is the reason I support Cleveland over some more so-called fashionable franchises. I have supported the Browns since I started watching in the early 80s, and was so glad of their return in '99. I hope that what we see this season, led by a no-name bit-part in a trade running back (omg, did we get the thick end there or what), heralds a true new beginning for us all as fans  Woof woof from the UK  DR

I have a couple of friends from the UK.....they live in the Cotswalds.
Great guys. It's a shame I only see them once a year. Something tells me we could be year round drinking buddies at minimum if you took away a ocean and a few hundred miles of land travel.

Welcome to the boards... and don't be a 'silent partner.'
I love seeing posts from around the world... it makes me realize how far-reaching Browns fandom really is.
Every poster is unique... and your contributions are as welcome as anyone's.
Love the Olde School football that came back to Cleveland, too. Hillis was a big factor in that return.

I don't understand it. I have a cousin who is a huge Denver fan and he was floored when they did it. He showed me a highlight video of what he had done in Denver and it was some brutal stuff. If anything he's running harder now.

Thanks Peen and Clem  I'll maybe make more of an effort to post in future. As always though, I'll enjoy reading the differing opinions on our Browns - this board is like no other and I always love the post game thoughts threads. Next year is our year Ladies and Gents  DR

I always see people comparing hm to Mike Alstott.
For me every time I see him run I picture John Riggins.
The guy is a beast. Quick feet, Power, and good hands out of the back field. What more can you ask for?

I'm sure there's a better comparison than this, and I'm not saying he's as good, but the guy he reminds me with with his power and athleticism... running over AND jumping over guys, the one he reminds me most of is Bo Jackson.
