My point was more in relation to the fact that the team carried it 30 times. Not just BJGE. I think anywhere between 80 - 100 is reasonable.

The Colts do have one of the worst rushing defenses in the NFL.

without getting into it. He ran 18 times against the steelers. one of the best run defenses.

I would love to see him carry it 15+ times a game. But, no. I don't see him getting 1,000yards this season. If we don't draft a RB next year and Law Firm is the featured back for the entire season, then he should have it without much trouble next year. But not in 2010.

Can't see it with Taylor back soon.

Pessimistic Pete

176 yards with 2 games (88 YPG) left and he does it.

In his two games against Bills he's rushed for 105 and 98 yards. Bills are currently ranked LAST in the NFL in rush defense and I have a feeling he's going to have another big day against.

176 might be tough but I hope he gets it.

on the flip side if we beat the bills the last one might not mean much maybe FT gets some reps in that one.

No. He'll have a decent day vs BUF but will see 9-11 carries vs MIA.

If they games meant something perhaps...
