It looked like Starks was out there on most passing downs. That means he'll be the one to get carries when we audible to a run or when we run out of shot gun.

They must think he better than Grant at pass blocking if they kept him after the sacks he gave up. We'll see how he progresses in that area as the season continues.

Color it an attempt at sarcastic humor.. or humor filled irony.. I still lost there. Hopefully this thread clears that issue. That sounds like something a cream of some sort is needed. [duh]

I really hate the "vs." in this thread title.

They both looked good, but Starks looked better running the ball. He's just so strong.

Nerdmann is convinced that Ryan Grant is bad in pass protection because he hasn't been awarded the third down RB job, but here's the real reason he hasn't won the third down RB job: He is the #1 RB. To move to third down RB would be a demotion for him. He is pretty good in pass protection--always has been. And he looks way better at it than Starks at this point.

However, Starks is younger and has more upside and is in the process of passing Grant up right now as an overall RB, if he hasn't done it already. It would be great to have both of them healthy all season for a nice 1-2 punch.

So anyway, back to the original topic. What are everyone's thoughts on tapeworms?

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I may be wrong here but it seemed to me that Starks got all the carries when the game was on the line. Grant was running 1st, 2nd and late 4th quarter.
