9 of Hill's 11 TDs came from goal line territory. Give Gio (or most any decent RB) goal-to-go situations and let him line up behind Peko, Whit, and Boling, and he can get it done too.
Yeah, well, if a guy leads the league in RBIs you play him. It's really that simple. Hill will be the starter. In his rookie year he played pretty good and there's no reason he can't do that again. I expect to see him doing it. If he doesn't, then that's another matter.
