Yup. It's amazing how fast NFL running backs hit the proverbial wall. Guys like LT, Westbrook, and Alexander went from dominant to done in a very short time.

I think what's more amazing, is that at one point, Westbrook was THE number one weapon that the Eagles had both in the running and passing game. Westbrook was definitely a game changer. It'll be interesting to see if he has anything left in the tank and whether any team would take a chance on him given his concussion problems last season.
