      Ricky's number of carries is up because of the 42 carries he had against you guys. Per Norv Turner, Ricky would have had 10 less carries if Fiedler does not overthrow the two open WR he had for TD's. This caused Ricky to continue the drive.

      His average number of carries per game will go down. He only got 22 carries against the Giants. Our coaches are aware of the possiblity of over-use as well.

          Did you read my post? The coaches are aware and I don't think he'll get the ball 42 times again anytime soon.

              I don't care what Norv Turner says. Ricky Williams IS YOUR OFFENSE! He is going to get over 30 carries a game, all year and will probably tire out by the end of the season or suffer some kind of injury.

                If he's the offense, and WILL get over 30 carries a game...was there a rip in the space/time contuum last week when Miami won and Ricky only got 22 carries?

                  RW is great but he's no Superman. W/o him, the fins are finished.

                    And you don't think that rushing Willis back too soon also carries an increased risk of shortening his career?

                      Um...DUH!!! Name me a team, and I'll show you a player who would ruin a season by going down. Tell me, how many win do the Bills get if Bledsoe goes down? And without a running game, Bledsoe will need to throw more often which increases his risk of injury. Injuries are going to happen...but unless the player has an injury history, who can say when?

                        I only stated that because if the fins coaching staff does indeed continue to work him at this pace, he may very be tired down the stretch.

                        QB's don't get hit as much as rb's.

                        And you don't think that rushing Willis back too soon also carries an increased risk of shortening his career?
                        I didn't hear the bills say they were rushing Willis back. I bet he hardly sees the field this season. Morris should be back and Henry will hopefully be healed by then.

                          Regardless of how many times RW runs, the Fins are going to have their hands full against Leftwich.

                            Just cause you think it up, and wish it, doesn't make it so. We'll see at the end of the season.

                              Agreed. And the coaches know that. So knowing that the coasches are aware of the issue, do you honestly think that they are going to put him in any situation that would hurt him? That would be committing employment suicide.
