If RW comes back and has his sh*t together, that will allow us to put Ronnie in the slot more and still pose a real running threat to the defense. That is dangerous.
Does anyone think the Pats D (or any defense for that matter) can cover Ronnie in the slot while still playing the run? They wouldnt be willing to put a DB on Ronnie because we would have a huge blocking advantage if it were a run and a LB can not cover Ronnie. It would be a hell of a tough offense to slow down.
I still say, RW left because of Wanny and thats why he would want back in. If money was his reason, he wouldnt have left to begin with. He wouldve mailed in the season, picked up his checks and not cared at all that he was going to be a part of a losing team. Instead RW saw the signs of things to come and didnt want to deal with a 4-12 season so he retired. Barry sanders also retired early when he doubted his FO. Its hard to compete for something when your heart isnt in it because you dont believe in the people you work for.
