Let's pray Sammy Morris/LaMont Jordan can stay healthy
With all the injuries this team has suffered I think not having a stud RB really cost them in some of their close games. If we're fortunate enough to get into the playoffs it will be imperative that we have at least the threat of a ground game. We've shown we can put up points without much of a running attack, but with our weak pass D in order to keep teams from coming back on us we need to be able to pound the rock late in the game.

Yards per game: 137th, 7th in league Yards per rush: 4.5, 6th in the league TDs: 18, 4th in the league Attempts: 425, 7th in the league |

I would add Light to this list. He's just as important to the running game as the two you mentioned.

The running game against the raiders was pretty good, kevin faulk didnt put up a lot of yards rushing but did get a lof of YAC.

Last season the Patriots lacked the power running ability that Morris and Jordan provide. These two backs will be crucial for the stretch run.

If I were going to pray for a player to not be injured, it would be for Wilfork.
