    SUMMARY: As the battle rages on to see who emerges as the Titans #1 RB, Coach Jeff Fisher has indicated his team is in a good situation regardless of the outcome. "We have a good problem either way we decide," Fisher said Saturday. "We're going to be good." On Friday, Lendale White ran 11 times for 51 yards - an average of 4.6 yards per carry. He also caught three passes for 23 yards. Chris Brown carried the ball six times for 42 yards with a long of 19 with a couple catches for 25 yards. "When we want to keep our running backs fresh in the game early in the season when you're dealing with some heat issues and things, both of them have shown they can make the plays, which is good. We'll be in a good situation," Fisher said.

    Chris Brown is going to be the starter, but LenDale will get just as many carries...

    Chris Henry still has plenty of time. Not a wasted pick yet. When Chris Brown retires Chris Henry can step in.

    You mean when he gets hurt bad enough? Because he is still a pretty young guy.

    yea but you dont use a 2nd round pick for a guy who is gonna play special teams or practice squad....

    we could of gotten Darius Walker after the draft if we needed a runningback who was gonna wait a couple of years.

    I wouldn't say we wasted a 2nd rd pick yet. Brown is signed for just one year and lendale and brown both have their share of injuries. Henry will play and have the chance to show what is can do.

    What if henry only has 250 yards rushing but is in the top 5 kick returners? Still a wasted pick? I'll wait 2 years to come to that conclusion..

    I agree....not very often do you see a second round RB starting right away. next few years will tell the tale.

    good lord, how many times are you going to say we wasted a pick on a player today? that's got to be the fifth time i've read that from you since i got home from work(5 minutes), and i think three of those times have been on ROOKIES.
