I agree, unless he just comes out and dominates on the ground inside and outside the tackles, then he should be used in the passing game and to split with thomas. I think reggie is a great player and is awesome in space, thats where he needs to be. Thomas is the ricky/ronnie type of back that wears down a defense and gets rolling with more carries. I'd rather toss reggie a pass to the flats than have him take an iso run up the right side of our O-line, 11/10 times.
It was toward the end of 2009 where you can see a legitimate change in the way he runs with the ball. The problem for him in NO was that with the injuries and being that it took 3 years, they had moved on from relying on him much at all...basically phasing him out of the offense. Now he comes to a place where as of now they are planning on using him to be their bell cow, and it's on him to prove your coaches right. I think he can do it, and will do it...but it's a risk to be sure.
