[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 696181, member: 265"] Since the only RB with more then 20 carries who averaged better ypc then Howard last year was Mason, I'm not sure where this "not great football player" stuff is coming from. I thought he should have always been the first off the bench when Mason needed a blow, but the coaches used Griffin instead. I can see that; it's the typical "we recruited him; we've got to use him" stuff you see in coaching transitions and it made sense to get Griffin some game experience. But no matter what happened in practice and no matter what the potential involved was, Howard was our second best RB when it counted: in the games. But I think he'll do ok at LB, if it comes to that. Somebody asked Paul why he recruited him and he replied, "He was a wrecking ball in high school." That can work both ways. I agree that this is an experiment, however. I just hope that if it doesn't work out soon enough the coaches will put both players back where they were. [/QUOTE]
