When was the last time we've had two rookies make that type of impact on Offense right out of the gate? Sure Rawls situation is at the expense of losing Lynch to injury, but it's still awesome how well he's doing.

Yeah these guys are real players. They'll probably become the foundation for our offense for years to come.

Anybody still grousing about the draft capital that it took for the Hawks to move up and grab Lockett before some other club did?

I would hope not. I hope that kid retires as a Hawk.

After a Hall of Fame career...don't want a niner-like type of retirement.

Good point.

I love the pro Hawks sentiment but I can't get too excited over a statistical anomaly.

Rawls ran roughshod over the 49ers, but they just aren't good. Their defensive line is no where close to where it had been and couldn't take advantage of our crappy offensive line.

So forgive me if I don't drink the Rawls "second coming of Lynch" Kool-Aid. I'm happy he's had some success, but I'm just not ready to crown him yet and I'm happy we still have Lynch on this team. When we get to the playoffs, Lynch will put the hammer down.

Lockett looks GOOOD.
