This could be difficult to predict. We all know Freddy T is healthy. We all know he played Healthy 90% of the season last year. I just dont know if he can do it again..I think if he can stay healthy again this year, he finally gets rid of that awful, "Fragile Freddy", name. But, even with Fred healthy this year, I dont see him getting the bulk of the carries..I think Del Rio is taking into concideration 2 factors why MJD will get the bulk of the carries this year.
1) Even though Freddy T. has signed a new contract with the Jags for another couple of years, his main duties right now are to mentor the young and talented MJD.
2) MJD, as we saw last year is a diffrence maker. He is not your ordinary back. He makes things happen. He can easily put a team on his shoulders and carry them to a win. It was done in numerous games last year. Del Rio is going to use the RB the most, who makes the most impact..
Overall, I think MJD will get 60% of the carries this year. And expect that number to rise every year after until Freddy is retired.
