I think he has a whole lotta talent that did not come out last season. The little bit of Brandon Saine that I saw looked GREAT and I am sure the Packers are itching to get Alex Green out on the field! Also, don't forget about old #12. He can run, and run well. No, I don't want him running a bunch for a couple reasons: 1) I don't want the extra added risk of injury and 2) Although he is great on his feet, he is even better through the air. I notice someone posted a stat of us running it almost 40% of the time (39.6?). To me, that is pretty damn balanced. No, it is not a 50/50 split but it is damn close. It is actually a pretty good ratio of run and pass when you consider our weapons through the air: Rodgers, Jennings, Driver, Nelson, Finley, Jones, and the backs out of the backfield. It would be a disadvantage to us if we didn't use the air attack at least 60% of the time because that is our greatest strength. A 40% running attack gives the surprise / honesty factor that an opposing defense needs to respect while also allowing us to take advantage of our greatest weapons. Just my two cents.</blockquote>
