I don't think Jordan will win it because he'll get banged up and Rhodes will take some carries away. But I do think the Raiders will continue to be one of the top rushing teams regardless.
As soon as Russell is ready to start the Raiders may not have one more running play all year unless it's Russell doing the running himself. We all know how Al Davis thinks and he didn't spend 63 million bucks or whatever it was on Russell to create a better running game.
Not true, Davis has no problem with a running game. The Raiders led the league in rushing in 2000, and the majority of their good teams have had a strong running game. His biggest problem with Norv was the lack of a power running game that Norv supposedly brought to the table. Incidentally, it looks like Norv is struggling in that department in San Diego too, even with the talent they have down there.
