He needs to put up "decent numbers" this year? What, the 1200 and 1500 yards he gained the first two seasons don't warrant anything? Oh, right, he didn't lead the league in yards last year b/c he got injured !CHASING DOWN AND TACKLING A DEFENSIVE PLAYER IN A PRESEASON GAME!

What an inane post.

insane? I argue what he's doing off the field, you argue what he accomplishes on it. So again my point is more production. 1200 was nice though it seems that most good backs find this an obtainable number. 1500 is excellent. I still don't want the offield baggage. Insanity?
