    Greene last game was extremely effective. You can't just look at ypc to compare how good a RB is because you can have very successful short runs that kill your avg. Here are his 9 carries....

    1- 1yd TD run
    2- 7yds
    3- 6yds and a 1st down
    4- 1 yd.....this is the only poor run
    5-28yd TD
    6- 3yds
    7- 8yds
    8- 3 yds and a 1st down
    9- -11yds I can't remember what happened here but it was the last 4th down play we had in the game.

    So his 8 real carries he had 2 TDs and 2 first downs.

    I'm all for giving him the rock more and letting CJ spell him if he gets worn out or proves to be ineffective. That is what kills me with the staff. Greene comes in early and pounds the ball for good yardage and moves the chains, but then we don't see him again for along time.

    I agree...Make the statement now..."We are moving on without you CJ-1k". I want to see some fire for once here. I can't wait for this offseason!!! I also can't wait for the last game to be played so I can watch Tommy Smith put out Munchak's torch. lol

    For those who want to keep cj1yd, I would be all for it under ONE condition..... he in no longer a RB, but instead is SOLEY used as an underneath slot type receiver. He still has speed, he just cannot break the backfield like he used to. But, if we can get him the ball underneath he has real shots at breaking good gains.

    Greene has just not been that good period. He is a plodder. We over paid for an average to below average player once again. I hope they are both gone next year and we draft new ones.
