On paper, sure.
Unfortunately there's no way to know how good this backfield will be.
The #1 run game of 2010 didn't post 175 yards on the ground until Game 3.
I think that's ALOT to expect any team to put together in the opening week of the season.
And again, that Atlanta run defense is pretty stout.
They didn't surrender 175 yards on the ground to ANY team all last season.
175 is ALOT to ask for in the opener.
Especially with Charles and Hillis both coming back from injury.
I doubt seriously that Daboll loads either of them up with a bunch of carries in Game 1.
