How many yards will Howard rush for this Sunday against the Bears in his “revenge” game? Given our run D lately, I think they feed Howard early and often. Assuming they keep a lead, they’ll keep feeding him. I’m guessing 125-150.
I see him dominating. He's been on a roll and I love him, he was my favorite offensive player when we traded him. Hope he dominates and talks some smack to Nagy/Pace. I hope we win, but I'm okay with him going off.
You could be right. Doug Peterson could prevent it with his unwillingness to commit to a lead back. Howard has only seen 15 or more carries twice this year. He’s averaging 4 1/2 yards per carry, and Pederson’s philosophy is questionable as Howard is proven and has way outperformed Philly’s other RB’s. The only thing preventing Howard from a big game against the Bears is his head coach

He's had 0 games of 100 yards so far, and 3 of more then 60. Last week he did have his best game 26 carries and 96 yards. He's scored in 4 games, and only scored more then once against GB.
W/out Hicks he could have a big game, but not sure it's guaranteed unless they go up on the Bears big early and decide to just run the 2nd half.

Miles Sanders is the better back. The only thing questionable about Pederson's philosophy is not making Sanders the full time guy. I won't be surprised if Howard does well though, Philly's o-line is great and our run defense has sucked lately.

According to some there is nothing wrong w/this great and amazing all time def, the qb the hc are the only problems on this team, do not disparage the all mighty defense w/this type of talk....

now you ruined another thread I won't read (but others are free to read it, no one accuse me of trying to say what people can or can't read) because it will soon be filled with angst ridden irrational attacks on every aspect of the team except the DEF.
Which is of course still elite, but only borne down into the depths by the pesticide that is Mitch Trubisky and his evil sidekick Nagy, along with Pace who planned this long ago in a revenge move with Sean Payton who lost his starting job as Chicago Bears QB after the strike. Its the only thing that explains Pace's draft picks, FA signings and trades. Is my tin foil hat winkled?
