Having re-watched the SD game, there were a lot of plays were the RB got a free release. On those plays, there were actually other guys Thigpen hit, but LJ could be very effective catching dump off passes over the middle in space. Problem is sometimes there will be a defender LJ will have to pick up. Will he do it?

refreshing that we're building an offense around our QB (gailey) and not our RB (Herm)....also funny to note that the leader of our offense makes about a $1.50 an hour while our "franchise" player rots on the bench making $100,000 per snap...
