Who will the Pats bring in? - Page 3 - New England Patriots Forums

I don't think they will or they would have started already. They must have know for couple of days and haven't done anything so far.

If the team plays well this weekend with no additional RB injuries then I think they will wait it out.

But then again, I don't run the team

Yeah, they run BJGE with Faulk as a change up. And you know we'll see Heath Evans in there running for some short yardage when they want to spell BJGE.

Or, this could be one of those games where we run 10,000 screens to Faulk and Welker in lieu of a conventional running game. Or maybe even some screens to Watson (he's still on this team, right?).

That'll have to do until either Morris or Jordan come back, as there's not a ton of roster room to add another back.

If they had more time..as a possibility..(meaning something they thought of months ago...) Mark Dillard who is on the PSqd...he played RB in college for a few years before conversion to the DBackfield....Well...it's certainly a thought...but..given the idea of past stars...OR impossible trades..I think they stick with what they have..

Supposedly we have a deep team, yet every time a starter gets hurt, Chicken Littles go bonkers running around in full flap mode.

There is a reason they are called backups.

Space - I'm not being chicken little about this. I am beal real. Fact remains that We are down to TWO RBs, Faulk and BenJarvus Green-Ellis. Jordan's status is in question. Morris is out for 2-3 weeks.

The Pats have brought in backs previously for a look-see. One of them was Gado. With Faulk's injury history and BJGE being an untested rookie, not having a 3rd true RB is a recipe for disaster.
