Not sure I agree with this. Your assuming that he either has an off year, or that Turbin and/or CMike become the featured back. At this point there is a pretty serious gap in talent between Lynch and the pretenders to his throne. A lot can happen in a year. Granted but like it or not Lynch (more or less) got us to that Superbowl. Who knows maybe by that time AP decides to follow the exodus from Minnesota to Seattle in search of a ring?
I love Marshawn to death, but he turns 28 in April. Almost all backs hit a brick wall at 30, but start to slide at 29. The way Shawn plays, he has many many hard miles on those legs. They're not going to pay him that much that close to "the wall". We drafted CMike in preparation to Marshawn hitting the wall and I fully expect them to be ready to hand the reigns over to him by 2015.
If you're the type to get emotionally invested in players, better start steeling yourself now for 2014 being the final year of Marshawn in Seattle... It sucks, but i's just business.
