    I assume you aren't taking into consideration the botched punt. I know....two completely different animals, but he still put the ball on the turf in a bad way last week.

    I was talking about Greene's ball security.

    Looks like the Greene darksiders are out in full force. Unfortunately, I am one of them. I hope Powell or McKnight shows something tonight that they can be a contributor at RB the rest of the year. Im not giving up on Greene, but he needs to get better.

    I don't have anything against Greene, I just feel like he's better suited for a backup role.

    He's effective against worn down defenses.

    I hope he knows how to pick up the blitz.

    Gee, what a shock Greene limping off the field again. This guy's more brittle than Pennington.

    McKnight's 121 scrimmage yards are more than Shonn Greene has posted in all but one of his 39 career regular-season games.

    Time to pass the torch.

    Ive thought this all along, Greene would be a great #2 back but carrying the workload I just don't think he can do. We need a spark in the run game. LT gave us a little of that but we need more. Some big runs and then pound with Greene. If we don't have that our offense becomes so much less successful.
