The mini debate of the RB depth chart has been cleared up.. it is how Mike McCarthy see it.

Outside of the hamstring injury that kept him out of practice earlier this week, there's been nothing but positive news about rookie running back Eddie Lacy coming out of Packers camp this summer. That would seem to make him the likeliest candidate to grab the starting job this season and coach Mike McCarthy said Thursday...

I think we can chalk this up to a coach using his media statements to motivate - some to keep their chin up in adversity, some to work harder to achieve the goal.

I like Harris. I think he's got a ton of potential.

But let's be real. The guy came in late in the season with fresh legs, when everyone else was worn down.

I'd be REAL interested in how he looks right now.
