I echo the same concern exit0 has, it really depends on which Larry Johnson and Clinton Portis show up next year. If we get the 2009 versions we are in deep trouble. Father time is not on the side of these two aging stars. It does not matter how many carries or miles they have or don't have. Ultimately it comes down to how hard they are willing to run and if they do not shy away from contact. We should not forget Portis' concussion was severe and he is now more prone to this injury. I do not want two Shaun 'tip toe burglar' Alexander type backs that fall down behind the line of scrimmage at the slightest presence of a defensive player.
