But wouldn't it be nice for Leon to get it in his rookie season? then he could try and chase Martins tied record with Barry Sanders
I doubt it, he's not going to get 20 carries a game (nor should he, he's most effective as a change of pace, when his speed and elusiveness catch the defense off guard.)
I would say yes because of wishful thinking and curtis martin is mentoring him. If he gains 1,000 yrds then that would be almost as good as making it to the playoffs because then we know we don't need to go rb shopping during the off-season and concentrate on other needs. It would also show significant improvement in the offensive line and optimism towards next year were I really hope to be one of the best teams in the AFC
