Who to cut (cap hits included)

Boutte · 01-25-2014, 01:00 PM

People have been trying to write Thomas off for years. Now it's because he's too old and the proof is that he couldn't run the ball from scrimmage this year. You know like Ingram, Sproles and Robinson. Oh that's right those other guys couldn't run because the O Line wasn't blocking.

Thomas is just old, slow and injury prone. The only thing he's good for is being one of the best receiving threats out of the backfield in the league. If you can't get yards from scrimmage behind a bad O Line you're not any good. Unless you're Mark Ingram or K Rob. (Sproles is worthless too apparently.) Then it's the lines fault.

Apparently our definition of bad is different: Mark Ingram had a 4.9 yards/att stat...

Khiry had a 4.1 yards/att

Thomas had a 3.7 yards/att

Sproles had a 4.2 yards/att

Ingram had a 9.7 yards per catch average and Thomas had a 6.7 yards per catch, so I guess that debunks the best screen back we have opinion
