Beanie named starting RB for Sunday

Looks like Coach Whiz is as fed up with Hightower's fumbling as the rest of us are. Although Hightower is having a good year running the ball, he fumbles way too much, and it looks like Beanie will get his shot as the starter.

Not that who the starter is matters though, Hightower has been the starter in all of the games since Beanie has come back, but it seems like Beanie has gotten more carries in each of those games.

Saw this one coming.

Hightower made a comment about “getting back what you’ve lost” that gave it away.

After reading that article I felt the same

I am very excited to see how we operate with Beanie on the field as the starter. Though I wonder if it will really change anything at all…

Tampa has a crappy run defense.

As long as we don’t break out in a case of fumblitis we should have a good day regardless of who is starting or getting most of the carries.

Tampa ball tackles

As most good teams do

if we can exploit the run we will have a great chance to win the game

… and beware of the 4th quarter comeback (it is halloween:)

Let's get the ball in LSH's hands too!

He’s a baller and I like the combo of him outside Beanie between the tackles.

Who would win in a fight, Whisenhunt or a Hurricane?
Hold on, hold on, what if the Hurricanes name was Whisenhunt?
Daaaaaaaaaa Cards, Da Cards Da Cards Da Cards Da Cards!!!

agreed

everytime he touches the ball, good things happen. I think they’re trying to use him more…

I agree that LSH should be included in the Offense more often

But his main priority should be Kick Returning, of course. But after that, I’m all for him being a RB too.

Maybe LSH could become a Punt Returner as well. I know that returning punts and returning kickoffs are completely different, but I remember reading an article a few weeks back that although LSH said that he was not even close to even considering returning punts for the team, he was always trying to work on it.

Who knows, maybe he’s just gifted in the Return Specialist Spot!

Give him at least 5 offensive snaps per game.

I can't stand fair-weather/bandwagon fans, stick with your team(s), throughout the good and the bad. And don't switch to whichever team wins the Super Bowl each year.
