M Naps asked in SportsFootball (American) · 5 years ago

At this point in the season, would it make for sense for the Seahawks to make Thomas Rawls the starting RB indefinitely?

Marshsawn Lynch has been a nightmare this season. He couldn't stay healthy even if he was locked in a bubble. In games, that he's played, he has not produced numbers as well as he has last season.

I think Thomas Rawls is clearly the way to go. His numbers have been excellent. Maybe Rawls could and should be the permanent starter from now on for years to come.

    Yes, I think the Seattle Seahawks should make Thomas Rawls the permanent starting running back. Rawls has the upside, while Marshawn Lynch looks like he is old and finished.

    Yeah, Marshawn Lynch is headed to the Oakland Raiders or Miami Dolphins

    Yeah, they should trade him. Rawls is definitely ready to carry the load on a full time basis.

    They're still going to start Marshawn Lynch, or they'll trade him and Thomas Rawls will be the starter.

    Rawls may never be the same again. Broken ankle and damaged cartilage.

    I suspect Marshawn will retire after this year, but if he is well, I think he is the preferable choice still.

    They don't want to hurt his feelings.

    Yes, it would as long as he isn't injured.
