And he doesnt need the unnecessary wear and tear of getting blasted by linebackers when he doesn't have the ball.

Good point...Sherman Tank is certainly a great option for pass protecting. And Charles IS a durable back dont get me wrong. He really excellerates ro the hole and runs hard inside. But when I saw him get denied access to the endzone last week I found myself thinking "why not yry and hammer Davis in there? But Charles 200 lbs soaking wet he may be usually gets in there. Charles plays big. And is an awesome pass blocker too...but I agree on giving him less workload where you can. Hopefully we can get up on San Diego early amd run Davis at em late
