Unfortunately, some guys are just plain injury prone and/or have bad luck. It sucks, but it's reality. .
I would say most athletes in general can't hold up to playing RB in the NFL very long, it's a very rare breed who can go 6 years or more and stay productive. It's a pretty rare breed who can go for long at all.
I've seen how awesome Rawls and Prosise can be, but I formed the opinion of them last year neither had a durable enough body to be the main guy for more than a 4 game stretch. I can't be the only who sees that.
We got Lacy, who will either prove he has above average durability, or will begin to decline, this year or next.
We SHOULD be pulling for Carson to be all he appears to be, we may well depend on him mightily the next few years.
Then' there's my guy AC, who hasn't missed a game to injury in 5 years of playing RB. I'm hoping he gets some prime opportunities tomorrow night, and not just short yardage stuff. Sink or swim time. If he gets the chances, I expect him to stand out.
