I hope so. Harris was gassed last week. Putting him back in for that play where he fumbled was clearly a mistake in hindsight. We should cap Harris at 15 carries until he proves he can handle more. Not a big guy. This is why you need more RBs active. if a rookie screws up an you bench him, then basically your left with White (who is a 3rd down back) and Harris who can't carry the load. I think there would have been much more value having JJ play last week over Bolden. Even if he only had a few touches. It would have allowed us to give Harris a break when he was tired and I don't think Bolden is all that great a Special Teamer anymore anyway.
Not disagreeing with you, but after last week where both fumbles and pass pro were suspect; the odds are they'll stick with known vets vs getting youth the ball - especially in the "must win" nature of the game.
Although I didn't watch him personally, supposedly his fumbling was a problem at Oklahoma but his pass protection was really good, but both looked pretty bad in limited time in his first NE game.
Woodhead was rb2 but he was also played a lot in the 12 personnel especially in hurry up and 2 minute.
Since we have white, his role this year will be less, but next year I see 2010 type setup with Harris as Bjge and Taylor as Woodhead (assuming he grows into it)
I think it's far more a case of him just not being NFL ready than just that one "fumble." More concerning are the blitz pickups he blew- he got flattened on one.
I feel like Mac is just trying to be the perfect team mate and is in full prove himself mode. Not unusually for a young guy just starting out and trying to establish himself in a room full of vets in any profession. I doubt he keeps this up for more then a year, but it's not a bad look at all. It shows he wants to earn their respect. I just hope once he does and he feels at home in that locker room he can keep some of that same fire and earnestness. Though I would hope in a more tame manner. Acting this exact same way at year 5 would be a bit cringy lol.

KVN suffered a throat injury during the game last week.
You're reading too much into Asiasi not being dressed. It's more about what other positions are needed (like the Pats having their 4 healthy OTs dressed).
Things to watch in running game:
1) Whether The Omen can revert to his usual form in terms of ball control
2) whether/how much Kid Dynomite can make of the slightly less crowded backfield
3) how long Dre is on punishment for.
(forgive me if (3) is more than an inactive status this game, that's all I saw.)
