Anyone claiming that BEFORE that game they were calling for Benny to get all the carries instead of Gio is just lying. Everyone had been ripping Marvin all year for not giving Gio enough touches and continuing to give Green-Ellis carries.
No I'm not. I posted his stats numerous times about Benny. IIRC, it was first mentioned after the late season win in SD where he had like 92 yards rushing for around 5 per. The 61 yards and 4.2 counts the first game against them when he was in NE and had yet to establish himself in their offense. He had a small sample size and it was somewhere south of 3 ypc and around 30 yards, but you surely remembered that. Remember, we're talking about ONE opponent, and not the rest of the schedule. Either way, 4.2 ypc and a cloud of dust is nothing to sneeze at when you need to control the clock.
