Nope, it means more reliance on passing game

Why are you worried about Arizona?

There are 2 games before then ...

Handle your business the next 2 weeks and the Arizona game probably doesn't even matter.

So unless Rawls has an injury that is more than 3-4 week injury, it probably won't matter too much.

Rawls is on IR.

I don't think Cleveland and St Louis are going to be a problem. By the time we play Arizona, Lynch might be ready to go.

I'd disagree and say the difference will be if the defense defends the pass better or not.

That's a significant blow ...

Offense will be very pass happy now going forward ... definitely need Lynch to get healthy at some point.

Remember that Rawls was a UFA. Not a nothing loss but if they find someone who fits the blocking scheme I think they can get by

Lynch should be ready for the postseason.
And yeah unless minneasota wins at Lambeau the arz game won't matter

What is the source for Lynch coming back healthy? Also Rawls is a huge loss as he was playing out of his mind, the difference between him and the other two RBs today was staggering.

Fuck.

Fuck.

No doubt the difference in backup RB's is huge, but the way the passing game is going they might be able to compensate. Wilson has been the best QB in the NFL for a month.

I bet you they can find someone off the street who's better than the backups they had today

I'm talking about if we meet Arizona in the fucking playoffs.

Dominating the time of possession was a reality with Rawls running the ball. That would have gone a long way to helping the defense, as we both know.

Lynch should be back by the time it will matter.

I think we can dominate the time of possession stat. The more we can shorten the game and keep our offense off of the field, the better chance we have to win the game.

I think there may be a wife-beater RB still looking for work.
