<![CDATA[Chris Johnson]]>He is expected to be released at the end of the season. Should Browns pursue him? What it be a good idea or is he done ? Thoughts?

He's not done; he just has too many miles to continue to be the featured back.

Toby Gerhart is in his last year of contact in Minny and I don't think they pay to keep him.

Yup... I mentioned Toby a while back in the thread about us pursuing Texans' RB, Ben Tate.

Gerhart played well 2 years ago when AP tore up his knee. He looked good again Sunday after AP went down with an ankle sprain.

I'd say we spend one of our 2, or 3rd rounders on a back

What happened to Greco? I saw Pinkston was playing LG most of the game. I didn't catch if there was an injury, but Pinkston played damn well at LG. Too bad the coaches don't realize how god awful Lauvao is at RG. He is the weakness in the run game and pass game. The rest of the line, especially with Pinky in there, have been pretty solid as of late. Mack isn't much of a run-blocker, but I see him coming back (even if we have to tag him) b/c we aren't going to get much better at that position...

Plus, why the he** are most of our runs to the right side. Look at any advanced stats on our line and you will se that we have the most success running off-tackle to the left... hmmmm... wonder why???

Greco left the game with a "sprained knee". Patriots probably targeted the knee.

I have been saying this all year. Joe Thomas is an ALL-PRO LT why do they run away from his side?

Could team him up with Dion Lewis, Fozzy and Oby to have a pretty nice stable.

But yes, we need better run blocking. It's below subpar.

When Gordon wasn't busy setting NFL records for receiving, he was also our leading rusher with 34 yards on one carry.
