    Your not looking at this correctly. If LenDale is in, it changes the game. Collins doesn't get the opportunities to F-up. Don't replace 28 with 25. Reconfigure the play calling.

    no...go away



    now back to Lendale business...YES, please give Lendale at least 12 carries. He is good for 3.5 ypc? That TD drive gold. Dont tell me he lost 30 pounds for nothing, Jeff!

    It amuses me how 2 months ago people wanted to 'trade Lendales fat :grrr::grrr::grrr:' or 'bench him for CJ, give him spell carries and 3rd down blocking' or even better 'replace him with Ringer'. Now we're 0-3, CJ has the highest rush attempt yardage and 2nd most yards, and Lendale is the savior, eh? lol.

    For the record, I never doubted Lendale or hated on our 2 back system. I think it should be 65%CJ and 35%LW and mixed up nicely. No patterns at all, LW on some first downs, CJ on some third downs, and so on. But many of you were kicking Lendale to the curb all offseason and now you're begging for Fish to give him carries.

    I never doubted LenDale either. My only beef with him is that he was just too slow and heavy last year and should slim down. Well, he's done that and it is showing in his speed, quickness and shiftiness, at the same time not losing any power.
    Yep, he needs a few more carries. I'd like to see him and CJ in the backfield at the same time. Use him as a pseudo-fullback if CJ gets the ball, and maybe use Crump as an H back from the TE slot for Lendale if Lendale gets the ball.

    Lol...this must be a Fisher plot to drive down his value to get him to sign an easy extension. However, if we have an uncapped year, he'll still be an unrestricted free agent.

    I've been saying for two seasons LenDale is going to deserve an extension, perhaps even the franchise tag - I mean if you dare give it to Bo Scaife, why not LW? I think people are starting to realize his real value.

    And to all my friends who think he's so easily replaceable, lemme give you one of Ocho Cinco's "Child, please."

    I'd at least let this one ride all the way to training camp next year to make sure there are no injuries and that Ringer's going to be able to seriously contribute. The last thing you want is two guys and have one go down.

    Wait, I'm not so sure about that. Didn't they also extend the prereqs for being a UFA after the cap removal starts to 6 years?
    If that's the case, LW may still be a RFA, as he's only been here four years.
