Right, but they are on the decline. Maybe a more appropriate way of wording it is that they peak at 5 to 6 and begin a decline. Sometimes it is like hitting a wall and sometimes it is steady, but backs do not always last until they ar 30. We shall see about Portis and Tomlinson.

Remember Tomlinson could not finish last season.
