Look, I know that Lynch's inactive cuz of an injury. But it is not a leg or head injury, it's an abdominal one. He has a ruptured spleen and that once it is fixed with surgery, he can play football again at a elite level. I mean look at adrian peterson, he's 30 yet he can kick some dirt! and 29 is not an age where you're too old to play sports, it's the perfect age that you are still fresh and strong to be athletic. When he reaches his mid-late 30's, then yeah he's too old. But if Marshawn didn't had stomach injury, he would be playing excellent this year. Look at brady, he's 38 yet he's doing well. I think people overemphasized the 30th birthday of an athlete when being 30 isn't that old, even 34 is pretty young enough to do well in sports. The most youngest person that doesn't live in his parents house or college is 26-30ish. Please don't replace him with Rawls, as amazing Rawls was, if he gets injured as well cuz he's not a beast like MSL we're screwed. Rawls is like Alexander, not bulky enough to crash through defenses but swift and agile to elude them. But Alexander can easily be knocked off a defenseman with the whiff of a wrist and that I know that Rawls can't stay good forever. The more publicity he gets, the more defenses of other teams get to know his techniques and he gonna get sacked and tackled more often after that. God forbid he get's an injury like Shaun Alexander did.

Injuries are only serious if they are affecting your limbs or your cerebrum. Other types like stomach injury are season ending, not career ending. Please don't give away Marshawn, there's still potential. Just wait until his stomach is fine and then he's back at his feet!
