Commanders Post at The Warpath - View Single Post - How will Saunders affect our running game?

Offiss started a thread about the QB situation, so I decided to start one about the running game.

We all know the success KC had with Larry Johnson and Priest Holmes. How different is Saunders running scheme compared to Gibbs'? Will we see more stretch plays? Counters? Screens? Larry Johnson put up some nice numbers yardage wise and TD's. I can see Portis having another record breaking season for us.

I think the biggest benefitor of all of this is Portis and obviously the offensive line.

What do you guys think?
