If I had to take a guess I'd say that he'll be right and Shanahan believes so as well, but with the whole "You'll get to compete for the starting job" line that got tossed around when we signed the other backs it may not sit well with some.

The difference being that he will take a breather for a breathers sake. And not up until a injury forces him out as has been the case.
I should have also mentioned that while he's out, he will feel confident the game will not be in jeopardy and is giving the other RB's much respect with his statement.
I to think CP will be much healthier and on top of his game this season.
