Not saying anyone here is doing it but I'm baffled why people are talking like Gibbs is an unproven up and coming RB who has to hold down the fort while Montgomery is out. Gibbs has been a top 5 RB all season. He's an elite back.

The thing I'm excited about is Vaki. Dunno how he'll do rushing but he has amazing potential as a pass catcher out the backfield. Runs elite Texas routes, elite wheel routes, can be a zone killer etc.

People are really saying this? :dahell:

I don't think they'll miss Monty at all. Monty's been solid but Henry and Barkley are the only backs you could put above Gibbs this season. Now, he just gets more touches.

After hearing that speech on the radio, I was very confident they were winning this game.
