In the Chicago game, Thomas did better in his one start than Bush had done all year. I'm not insinuating that he's better than Reggie Bush. Just that he played a very good game. He also had a 24 yard TD against Peanut's favorite team. (Sorry. I couldn't resist.)
I didn't say he won't be a good player, I said I'm not sold on him yet. I think that's a pretty reasonable thing to say. It would be foolish to jump to conclusions and say that this guy is the future of our running game because of one game. Doesn't mean he won't be, but I'm saying that I'm not ready to say that he's "the guy." The only other game where he had 10+ carries last season, he averaged 2.7 a rush. I'm just saying, don't jump to conclusions yet.
