I can see both sides. With Charles, we have a bird in hand. We might as well use him while we know he's good.

However, he's so dynamic that using him up now rather than sparing him so that we can get 7 years of productivity instead of 3 seems a bit foolish, especially given the fact that we aren't yet a contender.
Great Post. We should use him of course. But giving him the ball 20-25 time a game at this juncture IS foolish IMO.

How about just giving him at least 15 carries a game?

He got 11 last. Exact same as Thomas Jones and don't forget that Castille got some touches.

There's just no justifying that.

But there IS justification.
I have no problem with giving 11 carries to a guy who had SHOULDER SURGERY in the off-season in his first game back.

Between 15-20 carries a game sounds great for now.

Not trying to sound like a dick. Just making a point.

So you think that 11 carries was simply because of the shoulder injury that he did have? Because I don't see it like that.

I think there's something else why Jamaal isn't getting more carries and why a less talent is starting. Whatever the reason, it's bad logic.

I agree that between 15-20 carries a game sounds great for now. But I don't think it's going to happen.

Given three more 3rd down conversions and Charles would likely have hit 15 touches. I can understand the thought that maybe Haley/Weis wanted to limit his touches based on a fumble history and a wet ball, but I have yet to go back and actually watch the game again and see if he got most of his carries before/after or during the rain.

Personally, I don't really care who starts, but I do believe Charles should get 60-70% of the touches between him and Jones. Hell, for all I know, Weis wants to start Jones so that Charles comes in fresh and gets rolling with 10 straight touches when the opposing defense is starting to tire.

That's a great strategy.

I see one small problem with it however.

The defense isn't going to tire if the Chiefs offense is consistently going 3 and out.

Well, yeah, there is that.
