Do you guys think its a coincidence that Eagles are 3-0 when LeSean gets at least 20 carries?

Also I've been having a few arguments with my boys on of LeSean is an every down back. 3 of them say no (Cowboys, and Browns fans)

I think he is, Andy just doesn't run that ball as much as Houston, Minn, etc does

Whatever gets the ball out of Vicks hands is good by me.

Also.

In the past two years when LeSean has had 100 yards, Eagles are 7-1. When he doesn't get 100 they are 3-11.

I think LeSean is an every down back tht can run inside and outside. He's shifty enough to not take a huge hit, and goes down fairly quickly when he's in danger. When he's ran 25-30 times those are his best games. He gets better as the game goes on. The more carries he gets the more chances he has to break a 40+ yarded. He's averaging 4 yards a carry, when he runs twice in a row for two first downs, and then we pass 3 times in a row, something is off.

It's considered bad parenting to argue with your children. How many boys do you have? Why would you raise your boys to be Cowboys and/or Browns fans? ;)

Lesean's carries are more a product of the Eagles winning, rather than his carries giving the Eagles wins.

Besides, let's just admit, Shady isn't carrying this team to wins this year.  Not while he averages a career low 4.0ypc.  He's getting force fed the ball in the passing-game, at a meager 4.8 yards-per-catch, another career low.

Reid abandons the run if McCoy doesn't get 30+ yards on his first 3 carries

Anybody who says McCoy isn't an every-down back has absolutely no idea what they're talking about.
