So does Rawls start this week? I know the going sentiment is that if Lynch is hurt, Rawls will start, but how likely is it that Lynch will sit? I want to see more Rawls!
We don't know yet. They are taking an extra day off because of the Mon nt game and no travel. Good idea. But probably won't know about Lynch until at least Fri, and might be game time.

I'm with you on more Rawls, that kid has excited me since the early games of the pre season. He runs like a mini-beast IMHO. I say if Marsh needs the rest give it to him. We'll need him far more in Nov/Dec than now.

Are they not coming back to Seattle and training in Ohio next week?

They were at home last week, so no "coming back to Seattle."

Ohio? :shock: You thinking Huskies or something?

Lynch has been hurting and simply needs to heal a bit.I think the reps he missed in camp and preseason also hindered him with the new line ect.He's still Beast and he never had this so called step to lose,he will be fine even if it takes a couple more games.It is nice to know that we have 2 decent back up backs and our defense is alive again.GO HAWKS!

Rawls impressed me with his ability to get outside and run. I don't think a lot of backs would have gotten that big run to the outside like he did. He has steel, leaf spring legs that pop him ujp in the air like a little jumping bean.

Some links abouy draft info on him

Thanks for the links.

His speed seems to be his only glaring weakness but his 40 time isn't too much slower than Frank Gore. That makes me feel a bit better about it.
