My take: Sellers has a lot of pride, meaning a lot of football pride. He's not gonna take shit from CP and he certainly knows he's had a down season to this pt (admitted his monster screw up on the dropped TD). So...expect Sellers to come out swinging over the next several games at least. CP will probably do the same i bet. The running game is better because of the little tiff.

Hopefully he won't come out swinging at CP during games. LOL.

Haha i thought of that too. Zorn's got a point tho when he says these guys can handle this situation...or something to that effect. I still don't worry about the running game as much as the lack of production by the WR corp. I hope Lewis is working extensively w/ Kelly and Thomas this week and from here out. I get the feeling w/ some good coaching we could see those two begin to replicate what we see from young wideouts on other teams: some solid route-running, getting separation, and better body positioning. Up to this point they both look like they just play catch all practice.

Hopefully. Zorn is certainly trying to spin it like that. My fear is that w/all of the angst that's around them, this issue has broader implications.
