No way. I'd rather Sproles be exposed to more injury that PT.

Regardless of how many carries they give him, he is easily the best RB on the team.

Like it matters.

ST doesn't seem to block well enough for Sproles to break out.

I'm not, we'd have better field position all the time with no returner than having sproles. This dude takes it out from 9 deep to get the shite whacked out of him at the 17 every time.

well PT was halfway a joke even though he'd do a better job but we need to give some younger guys a chance. Morgan (he can practice catching) or whomever. My head hurts too much to think of names.

It is a good point which i'm not going to counter. But it leads to my statement of why is sproles so deliberately wanting to take every return out. Too risky for no rewards.

Let Kromer do it.

I don't know. I agree. Give Drew the ball at the 20, unless its only 2-3 yards deep.

I recommend gold bond, apply generously and wait 24 hours, you'll feel like a new man.

I donno man, sproles has the ability to take it to the house anytime he touches the ball. I dont have a problem with him taking it out 9 yards deep.

meh, his punt return avg last year was slightly above avg with only 1 return for td.

His kickoff avg last year was pretty good, no td's. but its off the chart bad this year.
