We won't run more than we did season to season because we ran so much in games 1-4 last year.

Most rushing attempts in a season since 2008. Hard to imagine rushing much more than last year.

As a RB, in 1995 Larry Centers caught 101 passes for close to 1000 yards.

This year, I see White catching close to 80 balls this year.
