    Think we are about to see Warren take over as lead back. Tomlin still being elusive on the whole injury thing for Harris. It’s been trending this way with Warren getting more and more snaps. Let’s hope he can do better with them. I have my doubts once defenses key on him but hopefully his style of running is better suited to handle it.

    There's most definitely something going on with Najee.
    But I mentioned sometime back I would run Warren until Najee returns to himself.
    If it is his heart, it's not in the desire, then so be it.
    Warren is hitting the holes and he is a north/south runner.

    I would be fine with this. Lord knows it would be hard to be worse than what we’ve seen from Harris thus far

    Exactly. Warren seems to be hitting 3rd gear when Harris is still trying to shift out of 1st. Blast has a point in how well this will work out when other teams get a lot more interested in stopping Warren. One thing for certain, doing nothing, gets you nothing. JMO>

    I've been saying this since week 1, and I was called a troll. Anyone want to eat some crow?

    You weren’t called a troll because of that. You were and are called a troll because you are a troll. Nothing more than calling a spade a spade

    Well in this game it shouldn't show either way since the Saints run D is one of the worst....I believe right with us.

    You get 37 things wrong and you want a pat on the back for one speculative “maybe”

    SDOT has a better hit ratio than you

    The Saints are allowing an average of 4.5 yards per rush, which is middle of the pack.


    We’re at 4.2, FWIW.

    4.5 (Saints) - 3.3 Harris + Canada offense = 1.2 yards per carry.

    Get Harris out in space with the ball!!!!
    Slam someone else up the middle.
    Not difficult.

    Eat crow for what? Watching RB struggle through a foot injury and a bad OL only on his second year. I like Warren, I think he and Harris are going to be a solid duo. Also think you need to play the healthy RB at this point.

    Get Warren more carries. Let's see what the kid can do if he's the featured back.

    It would be fun to watch some poor defensive player get pancaked when Warren is blocking

    I read one Tomlin comment where Harris gets the start or he might of said first series but expect to see more of Warren. It s just Tomlin being Mr nice guy coach.
    There young men but still men tell Harris we need more from you and until we see it Warren is going to get more carries.
    I don't know if Harris is still hurting or maybe at Alabama he was use to huge open holes either way if he is healthy he should know he needs to produce more he is being outplayed by an UDFA.

    Be interesting to see what Warren can do in the first qtr instead of the 4th when the game is out of reach.

    Warren should of been getting more carries weeks ago especially when they knew Harris was hurting.

    I'll have to borrow some crow from you. Must have a lot stashed away from the oh so many ridiculous things you have said.

    Harris will most likely start and should

    Warren will most likely get more carried and should

    From there let the script write itself

    If Warren is decisively better Sunday then he will probably move to starter the following week

    I believe Warren will get more carries when I see it, Tomlin said that a couple of weeks ago and he got 2 carries next game. He has never been good with alternating running backs, remember his quote of running the back until the wheels fall of.
