Yes, i know that Hunt didn't get to start until Ware went down, but they were buzzing about him during camp and had already promoted him to 2nd string, ahead of veteran Chark West. And when Ware went down, they played Hunt, they didn't go seeking old RB's to fill the void.
We know Thompson can run, but at this point that's about all we know.

Also, people tend to exaggerate the Hunt situation. Sure he didn’t start until Ware went out...but that was preseason. It’s not like Andy stuck with Ware through 9 regular season games. Even without an injury to Ware, Hunt probably would’ve taken the starting spot by Week 2-3.
The coaches clearly know more than we do about Thompson.
