I don't expect to get much agreement on this, but I like having James Starks running the ball better than Lacy even when Lacy is healthy.

Harris being inactive suggests to me that the Packers had every intention of using Lacy on Sunday but he was just proving to be ineffective due to his ankle or whatever the reason.

Lacy has never had less than 10 carries in a game that he wasn't injured in. He's hurt right now, luckily Starks is stepping up.

Last year I believe Lacy played himself into shape.

And he reported bigger this year than last. The ankle is limiting his workout movement; but he hasn't replaced eating entire prime ribs w/ Kale and Asparagus smoothies.

The extra weight puts more stress on the ankle, hampering its healing which limits his mobility more, and it seems causing more weight to be added.

I love Lacy but if this spiral dont stop then we wont need to sign Raji or Guion next year; Eddy will be our new nose tackle.
