We don't need a ****ing running back. For one, we're not a running team. That's just not our identity. It's not who we are. Two, we have enough running backs on our team that we really don't need to trade and give up draft picks for one. Three, as Greg Bedard pointed out via twitter, we were able to run at will against Detroit when we needed to take the remaining 6:30 off the clock. They knew we were gonna run, we knew we were gonna run, and we still did it anyway. Four, and finally, until our O-Line can provide adequate run blocking, we're just not going to have a good ground game. Besides, it's tough to say how good Jackson or Kuhn are since we don't commit to the run anyway. And you know what? We're going to be fine. If any of you saw the game vs. Chicago, we were able to move the ball AT WILL against the Bears. Guess what? No running game!Besides, teams like the Steelers, Cardinals, Colts and Chargers have proven you don't need a lights out ground game in order to make a good run in the playoffs, so let's all just relax a little, eh? And before you try and say that December and January are gonna cause problems, I'll remind you the Steelers play in every bit of bad weather as we do, and they somehow managed to win the friggin Super Bowl.</blockquote>
