I also don't see Bernard getting 175 carries this year, as long as Hill is healthy.
Hill, Gio and Rex combined for 399 carries last year. Harvey predicts 455 for them this year, but I can't see it happening. You have to account for how much Andy runs (60 carries last year) and how many WR runs/reverses Hue calls for (16 times last year). There just wouldn't be enough carries to go around if Hill/Gio/Rex get that many.
I like his Burkhead prediction, as I think he'll be more involved, especially in the passing game. I just think the split between Hill and Gio will be similar to the Benson/Scott split in 2011. That year, Benson got 273 carries and Scott got 112.
