When the big man rumbles, the Packers usually come out ahead. This is a fact.
Take the 16 best games, measured in total yards rushing, of Eddie Lacy’s still-young career and check out the win column: 12 wins, 3 losses and a I-wish-we-could-all-forget-that-one-game tie (in 2013 against the Vikings).
When people pontificate as to whether the thundering load of a tailback should return in 2017, with a new contract and hopefully the same offseason dedication to P90X or low-carbs or Jenny Friggin’ Craig, I’m here to tell you that the choice is obvious in the highest degree.
