There is one player out of the Patriots backfield that can flash electricity. He's not getting the chances he needs.
In the first half of the New England Patriots showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles, running back James White was nowhere to be found. LeGarrette Blount saw 17 snaps, Brandon Bolden played 13 snaps, and White came in third with a mere 12 snaps, including penalties.
Blount ran the ball 10 times in his snaps, served as a blocker on just one, and was the decoy of either the play action, quick screen, or end around on four snaps.
