I think if we could add Jerome Bettis it would help incredibly!



Even though he fumbled in a crucial moment today.
Jerome Bettis is going to retire after this season Luxorreb. If he doesn't, he'll more than likely remain a Steeler for one more season THEN retire. As far as Stephen Davis, well, Gibbs' past history will tell you he's a mastermind at revitalizing running backs' careers (George Rogers, Earnest Byner.) I always felt it was a dumb move getting rid of Stephen Davis. I understand that he didn't fit into the Spurrier project, but Davis could have lots of success under a Joe Gibbs system.

What about developing Nemo? He's a big back and could fit into Gibbs' offense nicely. Plus, he's young and we could have him for a number of years. I believe we already have your answer.
