Boy was we mistaken. Since Sims has taken over, in week 2 against the Cardinals, he has rushed for a total of 107 yards on 37 carries equaling out to 2.8 yards per carry. That kind of numbers simply will not cut it, against today’s NFL defenses.
Since being drafted by the Bucs, Sims has been used mainly as a 3rd down back and making catches out of the backfield for great results. Now that he’s been given the chance to show he can be a workhorse, we can all see the lack of explosiveness he needs to be our #1.
So, why not give Rodgers the start and let Sims get back to being the #34 we all know and love? The Good Lord knows something has to change or it’s going to be a long Monday night in Carolina. Again.
