Moreno says he's still 4 weeks away from returning

Dang... At least Miller has looked good.

Miller has looked good due to the gaping holes our O line has been providing. He's got quicks when there is space to run but don't let that fool you into thinking that Miller is in the same class as Moreno. We need him back as quickly as possible. Not every defense we face will be as obliging as Oakland.
 
I still think we limit Miller to 20 touches. Hes not a work horse back
 
Find it odd a player would know such an exact timetable. I could see it being 2-4 weeks instead. Hope this is just smoke and mirrors and we see him back sooner than later. Miller is having a good year but he fumbles way too much. A swift breeze could make him fumble.
 
i'm happy for miller to get some extended looks. kid has been on fire as of late.

This is what Abramson had today so here he says about...which is like you are saying not an exact date.

Moreno, who suffered a dislocated elbow in Week 2, told the Palm Beach Post today that he’s still about four weeks away from returning.
“I probably got like four more weeks,” Moreno said. “About four more weeks and I’ll be good.”

Thanks for pointing that out. All in all I get the idea from that he means about 4 weeks from now he'll be back at 100%. Knowing his mentality I could very well see him coming back for limited carries to get back into rythym with the offense for a couple weeks before trying to go back to a feature back role. I hope, lol.
 
Probably because he has fumbled the ball a few times on not very many carries.
Interesting, NFL.com has him listed at 0 fumbles and 0 fumbles lost. All the backs have fumbled some and Thomas was known for fumbling, I doubt if that was the issue but I guess it could be. Might be he hasn't picked up the playbook well enough yet. Maybe he will get more playing time as the season goes on.

Coming into this year, Moreno had a higher fumble per carry ratio than Miller.

There are things that Moreno can do that Miller can't no doubt. But there are also things that Miller can do that Moreno can't. Miller has really shown the effort to make himself better, and I see no reason to think that won't continue. He is a great asset to have and compliments Moreno well. I didn't like Miller his rookie year but he has shown me a lot the last few weeks. Both he and Wallace both look much more aggressive and confident that they can break tackles and punish defenders. Personally I credit Lazor with that aggressive attitude, we certainly know it didn't come from Failbin.
 
I really hope Williams gets more snaps. He runs harder and gets more yards after contact than any of the others RBs on the team. He always falls forward for another 2/3 yards. He is a very underrated RB. Not sure why he doesn't get more snaps.
