Yo. No offense buy you joined two years ago. People here have been screaming "run the ball" since I joined.

Every one of our RB's has missed multiple games over the years. Why do we think it's a good idea to burn them out this early in the season?

Khiry and Pierre have both played well, and when Ingram was healthy he was even playing well. When you have multiple guys producing how are they going to get burned out? If guys like Marshawn Lynch and Adrian Peterson can carry their offenses on their backs at times, why can't two or three guys carry the load? It's about winning.

Eghhhhh come on now... Deuce was all we had to look forward too for so many Years he will always be my favorite RB... Nothing was better than hearing that dome shouting DEUCE !!!!!!!!!!! But easily #2 would be PT

And everyone *****ed throughout his entire career that he has not been utilized enough and doesn't get more touches. The fact that he has been used sparingly is exactly why after 7 years in the league he looks as good as ever. I think Payton always knew exactly what he was doing with PT.

Re: Thats why PT should not see a reduced role

All I said was "I'd keep pumping Khiry and PT; we win when these two are featured late in games"...

Nothing about increasing the touches...

Keep mixing it up like we did Sunday, like we did last year in the playoffs in Philly...

Finish with punishing drives against strong, fast defensive front sevens like the Bucs with a mix of PT and Khiry...

Take the heat off the passing game...

We get into trouble with predictable empty backfields and third and long distances because we didn't chip four yards on a run play on the first two downs...

Great film footage of Deuce!

Almost got a tear in my eye!

Thanks for that, what great memories!
