Would anybody really be upset if the Dolphins didn't have a 1,000 yd rusher this year? With Ronnie and Ricky sharing the load, does anybody really think one guy will get 1,000? Not wishful thinking, but really.
 
a few years back the niners had both Garrison Hearst and Kevan Barlow. They each managed 1000 yards in one season. I guess what im saying is, yeah i'd be a little annoyed if one of them doesn't manage it.

yeah it was pretty impressive. Im not saying Miami should top that. Just that One of our running backs should be able to get atleast 1000 yards.
 
It'd be harder for Ricky to do it: A) only playing 12 games; and B) sharing time.

Even for Ronnie, it'll be tough, because: A) sharing time; and B) rookie.

We'll just have to see......I hope so.

Are you for sure that the 49ers had two 1,000 yards rushers in the same season? I think the Dolphins are the only team to ever have that. I could be wrong, but I don't think it happend.
I'd love to see both guys get 1,000 yards, but our line will need to create some nice running lanes. Hopefully HH can help this line.
 
damn im wrong. Barlow had like 800something. My bad guys. Still, i stand by my point.
 
I dont see us having two backs getting 1,000 yards as Ricky has to sit out the first 4 games....I see Ricky getting 600-800 yards should he play 11-12 games, and Ronnie getting around 1200....I think Chambers will have his best year ever in terms of yards and catches, and I also see Ronnie Brown getting a lot of catches on swing passes and screens....hopefully we can have an offense like what the Vikings have had. :)

It's okay, since your a finsfan, we'll forgive you.....lol
I also think Chambers will have a good year in this open offense.
Still might be run first, but more in the passing game. Still have to run the ball and stop the run.
 
You never know -- For all we know, Ricky could get injured in training camp before Ronnie even signs his contract.
 
Ronnie Brown should get 1000 yds unless the Qb situation is worse than even I thought.
