Re: Running Game Week 16
I'd like to see Robinson run a couple of more against Tampa. Still not sold on Ingram. We may be show casing him for a trade next season.
We've got PT, Sproles , Cadet and Robinson. Sproles and PT are the best two but are getting older. Still, I think we're set at RB. |

Im tired of seeing ingram hit a 8-11 yard run, getting replaced by sproles, then we run a screen which loses 4 yards |
