Jamal Lewis isn't worn down. He averaged almost 5 yds/carry last week...but he only had 9 carries! He had 15 in each of the previous 2 weeks. He's their top RB and he gets carries like a backup. He's actually healthy this year too. There's no way he's worn down, he's not being used.

McNair is old, you're right. They have good receivers, he's just not getting the ball to them. It's sad that Kyle Boller came in and opened up the passing game. Mark Clayton had a monster week with Boller throwing to him.

The offense is passing way too much this year, but not effectively passing. They're not establising the run like they should. They abandon it. They even have good backups in Musa Smith and Mike Anderson, but their starter isn't even getting carries.

Someone else needs to call plays there. Billick will go back to the run, like they should.
