If Maroney does not get injured this season, then you can count him having a fantastic season...making him his first pro bowl...I also think that this will be Chad Jackson's breakout season as well!!!

I think Maroney showed why we drafted him at the end of last season!

So lets hope he continues this for years to come!!!

Maroney and Addai will both put up some serious career numbers

As long as the OL holds up and gets room for Lomo he will be fine,But I don't see much to say he will ever be a superstar special back but slight above average.

The games he played well in were mostly against scrub teams towards the end of the year,I want to see a 100 yard performance agianst Indy,SD,Balt or a top defense before I could consider him anything more than average to slight above average NFL back.

Did you watch the AFC Championship game? How about the divisional round against the Jaguars?

Uh... he ran all over the place against Jacksonville and San Diego (the team you just mentioned in your own post). Those are top tier defensive teams in the league and he smoked them both for well over 100 yards. He was one of the biggest reasons we won the AFC Championship game.

Bet on it. I wouldn't be surprised if Maroney is the best offensive player on the team next season.

I suspect LoMo will gain 1200 yards in relief of Brady and Moss lighting up the league. Around 9 TD's.
Morris will gain about 6 to 700 yards and 7 tds.
Faulk, Evans, and Eckel et al. 400 yards and 3 tds.
Yes, I'm predicting we rush for 140 yards a game next year.
