I think TD's injuries were a cumulative affect. Look at Jamal Anderson too. A couple good years...one outstanding year and then nothing. Its a trend with RBs.

I think Ricky is stronger and more durable than any of those other backs (such as Terrell Davis and Jamal Anderson). Therefore, I don't think he'll lose his effectiveness after only a couple of seasons of heavy usage. However, this team better get him some blocking and some receivers to open up a passing game or he'll definitely be washed up after a few more seasons like this.
