Hey, why don't we just give CJ the ball 30+ touches a game and wear him out and make him absolutely useless in the crunch time of the latter part of the season when we will really rely on him? Of course we need LW, he softens up the defense and allows our passing game to work and opens holes for CJ. CJ is great,but not a God!!

 

Alge Crumpler is getting less than 2 catches per game. Is he hurting or helping the team? Kerry Collins is passing for less than 200 yards per game...is he hurting the team? Stats don't tell the whole story

 

Yeah, the 5 TDs mask LenDale's uselessness.

 

So let's just give the rock to CJ all the time. We know he's indestructible, indefatigable, incisive, incredible, indelible, inextricable, infallible, infuriating, inimitable, insoluble, inspiring, insuperable, insurmountable, integral, intelligent, invasive, invulnerable!!!! In short, he is the god of running. :ha:

 

And, that's just the "i" words....

 

It's all in the EYE of the beholder.

 

5 pages long and you guys are still missing the point. NO ONE IS SAYING GIVE CJ EVERY CARRY! For God's sake, quit coming back to this.

CJ needs to split carries, but with a competent, productive, and physically fit counterpart. LenDale fits none. That's my whole point. But people still want to crown him for his TDs.

 

:ha:

 

LenDale fits our offense for his role. But hell I am 5'8 180 and I could fit his role. His role is not something another professional football player couldn't handle, i.e., Ganther and Chris Henry. Keep in mind I am not a LenDale hater, I like him. But like Ubiq said earlier, LenDale is fat, lazy, out of shape, and does not take his PROFESSIONAL career seriously. He looks like a D-Lineman for christ sake. I know if I didn't take my professional career seriously or not perform better than the next guy I would be fired. (Ganther out performed all backs in Pre-season) and before everyone says that Ganther did it against people that got cut, he still balled. Correct? Why not give him a shot. From what I understand when I listen to interview's of our players, they always talk great things about Ganther's work ethic(something LenFat obviously lacks).

Give Ganther a shot I'd say. Henry hasn't quite earned it.

If Raf Little hadn't went down in the senior bowl we might be looking at two rookie running backs splitting the work load. Just food for thought..
