If CMIKE doesn't see the field I, for one, will be ecstatic.
Do explain? I mean, I love me some Beast Mode. Don't get me wrong. I have the jersey. I believe fully he's good enough to pay him any amount he wants to stay (within reason) and that he makes this team that much better. The man runs like he's possessed and his will is insurmountable. The saying should actually be "Caught between Lynch and a hardplace", and anything else there is good to say.
But I'm curious as to your reasoning for CMike not touching the ball. I think he could be a great change of pace back, and like it or not we need to think about the future (which I hope is a good 2-3 years from now) when we don't have Lynch. I'm not saying CMike is the answer, but he's had some good runs, and I gotta believe there's room to grow if given the chance. I'm not saying give him 20 carries, but maybe 4-5 if the pace merits it.
All that said, I'd like to give the following guesses:
Russell: 250 yds, 2 TDs
ADB: 90 yds, 1 TD
Luke Willson: 80 yds, 1 TD
Lynch: 175 all purpose, 2 TDs
Defense: No points, but at least 4 sacks, 1 INT, and someone on the Pats getting knocked the heck out by Bam Bam Kam
I honestly think with the dedication and preparation of this team, despite concerns about Earl and Sherm, we'll give Brady one of his worst outings ever.
