ixcuincle Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Torain. http://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/statuses/125597448562409473 Redskins RB Tim Hightower is active today; how much work he'll actually get is a different question.

Warhead36 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Torain will still get a lot of carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeknows Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 as long as torain is healthy he will be our starter. i made note back in preseason that hightower hits the holes too upright and would be less effective against NFL starters.... i think the drop off on his ypc has a lot to do with that. now that torain is healthy he will be our #1 for the rrest of the season .. so long as his stays healthy.

Theismann07 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Hightower is starting, but I believe we will see a heavy dose of Torain today with Helu sprinkled in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandymac27 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I just heard from Jamey Eisenberg that Hightower got the start????? ---------- Post added October-16th-2011 at 12:47 PM ---------- CBS sports is listing Torain as 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Hightower. But Torrain will see the ball. I like Torrain as a closer. Bring him in when the defense is tired and let him pound. Make them commit to stop it. Then play action pass downfield for a TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandymac27 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I'm hearing from different places that Torain or Hightower are starting. I'm confused... yeah me too. I have Torain starting at flex so I'm gonna be so mad if he doesn't get any carries, not to mention I think he's the overall better RB going into Philly.

stwasm Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Given the offensive line woes and Kyle Shanahan's stubborness in not dialing up more running plays, it really won't matter who's back there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
