Laughter should not receive the boot, for the shoelaces are tied though the toes are through the sock.

Damn, guy was a friggen amazing running back. It's weird how fast they go down hill.

You know what? I'd be willing to cut Westbrook, sign Tomlinson, and let him back up McCoy. There is gas left in that tank.

NFL is hard on running backs

Yep. Shortest careers are running backs. I think it's rare for one to go more than 10 seasons. Could be wrong though.

There's pretty much a wall RB's hit at 30. Almost every one of them start going downhill at that point. But instead of years, I think a better statistic is how many touches they average per season. If you have a platoon style running game where you split carries you'll get more years out of a RB. If they are the primary option and carrying the rock 300+ times a year they are going to be ground up into hamburger in 3-5 seasons.

Once the Chargers let O'Neal go, their running game went downhill. That guy was an insane run blocking FB.

 

[DayLaPaul]

O'Neal? You mean Lorenzo Neal. The guy was a beast, but they let him go because he suffered a devastating injury and was never the same. And neither was the Charger's running game.

So who will the chargers draft as their Rb back in april?

An NFL running back has the career longevity of a pound of cripsy bacon at an ATOT meet.
