Default Fred Taylor Needs the Lions Warmup or Save him for the Jets?

I hope he plays Thursday just to shake the bugs out before the Jets rematch.

Watch out, try not to make the lions game seem easier or less of a game than the Jets game or you will get a bunch of idiots saying that you "disrespect" NFL teams...

On topic of your thread, I also hope he plays Thursday so he is not rusty.

BJGE and Woodhead are a good duo with Morris at FB. I dont know where Fred fits in where he comes back.

Shoot, I'd be happy if he suits up period in either game

RBs don't need much ramp up time, especially with as many miles as Taylor has. I would love to see him come back for the Jets game and just tear them up. Give Brady a game off

He'll be the only rested guy on the field.

This is the answer. I'm not counting on it, it would be gravy.

No thanks. BJGE and Woodhead have looked awesome IMO.

The knock on BJGE is that he doesn't have the speed to take it to the house...name the last Patriots RB who did? Certainly not a 34 year old Fred Taylor with a bad wheel. I love the BJ/Woodhead tandem and I don't see what Taylor brings at this point that these two don't.

It would be great if Taylor could get into the Lions game. He'd be fresh and going against battered players, plus any problems due to not being used to contact could be dealt with against a non-conference team.
