Are people seriously worried about marshawn?

The posts I read here make it seem like people are legitimately worried that we have to ride beast mode through the playoffs. The man came back with the sole purpose of winning another superbowl for us.

even if a 70% marshawn shows up in the playoffs, this is enough to win the big dance with the way wilson is playing right now.

haha but i guess it just shows you how lucky of a draft pick we got in Rawls, if we are seriously nervous that we now have to rely on the freakin BEAST to the superbowl

Rawls was an UDFA

Im more just nervous on what version of Beast we get. The version we had to start the season looked worn down, as if the years of constant punishment are finally catching up to him. This isnt a knock on him, this is a knock on father time. But I would rather run with an unknown Lynch then the rest of the options we currently have.

I can think of 12 million other reasons Lynch came back, and he has even said so.

That said, he has stood the test of time and abuse and I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. But, there will be drama I think.

I can't wait until he comes back so we don't have to have thread's about Brown and Michael.

My concern at the moment is why the team and Marshawn are being so secretive about Lynch's decision to take his rehab "offsite". That seems very odd to me as this is the time he should be with our team, with our medical staff and trainers rehabbing.

The decision to go offsite by Lynch to me smacks of something more to the story.

we need some sort of a running game to win..no doubt we cannot rely on our passing game and expect to beat the playoff teams.

The most depressing thing about Da'Juan Harris' performance against the Ravens is that he looked a lot like Marshawn in the early season. Slow, indecisive, and ineffective. I hope he comes back fresh.

HGH helps you heal faster and is pretty much non-detectable after a few days. :34853_tinfoil:

He was out earlier in the season and was watching the game from the press box. Lynch plays to his own beat, and Pete lets him. I think it's that simple, and Pete (off site rehab) shields him from the 1000's of reporter questions.

Agree.

And for those of you mentioning he looked old, slow and indecisive earlier this year, try to think back to how he played against the 9ers in Santa Clara. He looked good in what I think was the only game he was healthy for all year. IF he comes back fully healthy, I'm confident he will be near the "old" Marshawn.

Marshawn gets to do whatever he wants.

He has certainly earned it.

I am worried that he might rush back too soon and end up not healing correctly so that he is much less effective in the playoffs. If we can get a 100% Marshawn back for the playoffs I am ecstatic. Might even be OK with getting him back after the 1st game in the playoffs (as long as we can make it out of the 1st game without him) but I would hate to lose a game because he could have been ready but came back too early.

Those are my only concerns with him. Marshawn has carried the load for us before, he has gotten us through important games in the playoffs and I see no reason to doubt his commitment to winning now. Guys that don't care, don't shake off 8 tackles to go 3 yards, if for personal pride if nothing else, I am sure he is going to produce to the limit of his ability.

I am worried whether he will be available in time though.

Loose lips......

I'll take an 80% Beast with the OL we have now,better play calls and passing.He will gain from all those things unlike earlier in the season which was horrible all around.

I hope your right. Pete seemed a bit perplexed (body language and voice inflections) during his pressers by Marshawn's whereabouts before he came back - and then once he was gone again. Maybe you're right and I am looking too much into it but I've been known to enjoy a good conspiracy here and there. :327321_Spy_23.22:

I will admit, those holes at times have been huge. Big props to an O-Line not constantly disappointing us. Lynch could easily read those and grab 7+. Even if he cant cut as quick as he used too, he still has great vision and power.

I said my theory more as a joke, but youve got me thinking differently now... :17:

Im more just nervous on what version of Beast we get. The version we had to start the season looked worn down, as if the years of constant punishment are finally catching up to him. This isnt a knock on him, this is a knock on father time. But I would rather run with an unknown Lynch then the rest of the options we currently have.

To be fair, I think a lot of the parts of the early season team looked worn down. Not just Beast.

Yeah, but my other concern is strength training in general. How much core muscle has Lynch lost while not being able to train during his recovery? It takes a lot of time to build that back up. If it takes 3-6 weeks to fully recover, how long to recover that muscle group and all the other neglected ones?
