When Jackson starts getting 20+ carries a game, we'll find out. Until he does, we just won't know, and there's no way to tell. Frankly, I think he's been more than serviceable for us. I think he'd tear off a few more big runs if he go the rock a few more times. Remember he had an 18 yarder vs. Philly and a 12 yarder vs. Chicago that was unfortunately called back. Seriously, the guy needs a legitimate shot. I don't think he's gotten that yet. Last weekend he averaged 4.8 yards per carry over 9 carries. You add that 71 yard gainer and he averaged 11.5 yards per carry on 10 carries. I believe part of that success has to do with replacing Tauscher with Bulaga on the O-Line. I get that people expect him to always get 10 yards per carry while only getting 10 or 11 opportunities, but it takes time to get into a rhythm. If we give him a solid commitment in the running game, he might be able to surprise you.</blockquote>
