This feels like a dream. Don't pinch me because I want to see how this story ends. Could this story end in delicious redemption? Boy, this has the makings of a fairy tale finish to this middle-aged 12. All the Negative Nellies who want to tout that it's unlikely a 33-year-old warrior has much left to offer, I say to them all you are grossly missing the point.
This was a psychological signing. Whether he gets 100 yards or 10 yards this Sunday, make no mistake about this folks...Marshawn's presence alone could be just enough of an added ingredient to propel this team to a victory under the brightest lights of Prime Time.
Sure, he can't play Left Tackle or the host of other positions depleted. He's not going to magically keep Russell clean on every down. And yes, I concede we can still lose this Sunday to a talented and surging 49ers team regardless of the homecoming Skittle-filled love fest.
Yet, everything in my bones on this Christmas day is telling me this will be one of those games we 12's look back on with nothing but smiles and joy. Something is brewing here and I for one am going to sit back, enjoy and savor every moment of it.
Welcome home Beast Mode. Merry Christmas 12's!
