Essentially, he did not consider Morris w/out Shanahan & RGIII to be a top 10 back. Thought even more ranked higher than Helu. As Smootsmack pointed out, he simply didn't credit Helu for his 2011 efforts and really didn't seem to value Young very much. Admitted that he may have ranked TB high with Leonard as a back up.

It seems like the Skins offense gives all doubters excuses. If you want to doubt Griffin, he only succeeded because of Morris and the scheme. If you want to doubt Morris, well then he only succeeded because of Griffin and the scheme. If you want to doubt the scheme, well then it only worked because two good rookies were running it but this year it will be figured out.

I can't wait to see the Skins demonstrate that it all works because all three elements are just that damn good.
