    Dejan,
    Finally, a writer with some sense! Redman should have been the guy for a couple of years but he doesn’t get a fair chance. All he has done is prove himself over and over. Yet Tomlin sticks with “his guy” Moore from the Vikings,who had a couple of good years here but has shown little or nothing the past two. I like loyalty but not when it costs opportunities to win. What if Fast Willie went to Florida and worked with the guys in speed camp? I can’t believe he lost that much of a step in two years. At least he doesn’t fumble away Superbowls!

      @Mike: How strongly do you feel that Redman could be a legit RB if Mendenhall were hurt?

      That appears to be the larger issue.

    I don’t feel strongly about Redman as a long term starting back. But, with his limited opps in games, he certainly looks extremely promissing. I find it strange that Tomlin doesn’t at least give him a few extra carries to see what he can do and give Mendenhal a breather.

    @DK, Do read all the comments from all your posts? Do you have influence over the other columnists/journalists? The posts on all the other blogs at the Trib sure seem to have increased since you made the move.
