Looks like he's starting to run like 2011-2012 Braxton. He has 481 on the ground in his last 3 games, while only totally 410 in the previous 7.

Congrats Mr. Miller!!!
If there is a (football)Trophy with a name that sounds more disgusting than this one....I'm not sure of what it is. I feel like Braxton should shower after this one.

Ohio State QB Braxton Miller should not enter 2014 NFL Draft
By Bucky Brooks
NFL Media analyst
Published: Dec. 3, 2013
Tony Ding/Associated Press
Ohio State QB Braxton Miller entered the season as a top Heisman Trophy candidate.
Braxton Miller is not ready for the NFL.
That's not a slight to the considerable talent, athleticism and potential that the standout junior displays directing Ohio State's explosive offense, but Miller is simply not advanced enough as a passer to be effective as a starting quarterback in the NFL. He struggles with his accuracy and ball placement on intermediate and deep throws. Miller lacks the anticipation and timing to make precise throws into tight windows.
Most importantly, Miller lacks the pocket presence and awareness to defeat pro defenses with his arm instead of his feet.
Now, I know the immediate success of Robert Griffin III, Colin Kaepernick and Russell Wilson has changed the way athletic quarterbacks are viewed by NFL executives.
Teams have shown a greater appreciation for quarterbacks with running skills and improvisational playmaking talents, but those players must also exhibit extraordinary passing traits to excel in the NFL. From arm strength and accuracy to pocket presence and awareness, the top quarterbacks in the NFL are capable of winning games on the strength of their arm.
After closely watching Miller's performance against the Wolverines from the Michigan press box last week, I don't believe he can function as an NFL quarterback at this time. Although he is an electrifying playmaker with an impressive set of physical tools that could make him a dangerous threat at the next level, the inconsistencies Miller exhibits as a passer would challenge even the savviest offensive coordinator to craft an effective game plan for him.
