It was reported that he quit during the conditioning test for the Patriots. He was cut immediately after that with Belichick saying "It didnt work out."

Hillman doesn't deserve 15 carries a game. He's gotten his shot and hasnt shown lick.. He doesnt make guys miss. As long as Ball picks up his assignments we'll be fine with him getting 15 carries and letting KM and Hillman split the other 10.

He quit during their conditioning test. Good for him.

Peyton: "Hey Joseph, how's it going buddy?"
Addai: "Doin' good...bit out of shape. Worked out for the Giants a week ago."
Peyton: "How would you like to make one more Superbowl run?"
Addai: "Sure thing, what time is the flight?"

So are we looking to actually gain yards on the ground or just bring some old ****er in that can pass block?

Alot of it also has to do with manning. Look at him barking on the sidelines with the offense after TDs. Up by double scores and he's fired up giving more schooling than most OCs.

It's pretty much a dead issue though cause its going to be Moreno. Now if one of these 3 backs go down then it will be

Well, for all of you who questioned McGahee's value to the team, here's your chance to see what life is like without him. The run game is not going to pretty.

Peyton and the coaches will figure out a way to get short yardage when they need to but this certainly doesn't help us against Baltimore and Tampa, let alone in the playoffs.

For many reasons, we need to get that bye. We need to beat Baltimore.

Well, after watching alot of 3rd and short to 3rd and 4-6 end up being runs, resulting in failed conversions alot this year, they can improve

Anyone have a stat of our 3rd down conversions/failed conversions being run plays this entire year? I remember seeing audibles into runs, resulting in no gains.

Even with McGahee, the broncos were **** at getting short yardage

I don't either. Looking back at all the games. How many were won based on significant play by Mcgahee?

Not that worried. Our run game sucks to be honest, so there's not much to miss. We have the same YPC as that wonderful 2010 (4-12) season. As was predicted, our run game has returned to that form. Difference is, now with PFM we don't really need it.

I don't know, the sky might not be falling but we're definitely going to miss him. By far the most competent RB on our roster, 11th in the league in rushing. Almost always gets positive yards, gets extra yards, helps set up the play action, etc. We really need Knowshon to step up, and that's a scary proposition. I think some of you underestimate his impact.
