Exactly, we have the 6th best rushing game with Austin as our FB, why change that if it's working?

Don't forget, Lorig has the size to line up at TE. We'll need the help if he's up to blocking

There's still room to improve... they could have the #1 rushing offense.

Johnson has been good for the Saints, but the way Lorig opened up lanes for the Bucs' run game - I definitely want to see him do that for the Saints' RBs.

And what if we put him in and our running game faulters?

What a player has done in previous season bears no ground this season

Jairus Byrd had 22 turnovers through 4 seasons for the bills, he did absolutely squat here

well what if we put him and our run game soars in yardage gained? Referring to Byrd's faults has nothing to do with Lorig
