He always leaned forward, and always got positive yards. There was an old Polian quote after his injury where he said something along the lines of "Edge would turn a 2 yard gain into a 10 yard gain, problem is he would also turn a 30 yard gain into a 10 yard gain." Thought that was a brutal but honest comment.
