With Damien Williams (knee) and LeSean McCoy (ankle) banged up, do you guys think this week could be Thompson's opportunity to go off? I think it'd be awesome to see the kid come in and have a big game. [Reply]

Wonder how long Darrel W. will be out and if he's out for a bit if they'll bring up Washington, sign someone, or just stick with Clyde, Darwin, and Sherman. [Reply]
Thompson had a nice little carry. A good 7-8 yarder because he's got a little giddyup. Didn't require that much vision or awareness of blocks, so he did okay.
Like I said... he's not that great. But I do think he's good enough to hang out at the back end of the roster and get a few carries when needed.
Now, if we start depending on him? That may be a problem... [Reply]
