I really like Well's skill set, and his agressive style of running.

But his durability problems make it difficult to be believe he'll ever be an elite or even an above-average back.

And that's a problem for the Cardinals.

I think he can be "elite" if he were spelled more with a change of pace back. If we had the awesome duo of Beanie Wells/Ryan Williams, Wells doesn't run as much as he is and gives him more time to rest on the sideline.

The problem with running two back is both need their touches to be successful. We'd have to become more of a running team but I don't see this happening...

Beanie Wells heads up against Ray lewis is worth the admission price.
FEED THE BEAN- He is not outmatched by any #1 defense, Lewis and Suggs will not Cower-- The Bean will rule Lewis--may end his run today- maybe Lewis' career.

kidding right?

the reason he is not elite is his 3 carry per game average under stupid whiz and Miller.

Bean is going mess the Ravens up today- give notice.

yes

Fitz may be the best but Beanie is the most IMPORTANT!
FITZ can not be the engine of this offsense- that is proven last year and this year.

Edge was the Engine in the 2008 playoffs, making Fitz and others purrrrrr.
It is just the damn truth. When Fitz went down early in his career we survived on Edge and Shipp.

Beanie may be the best player in the NFL, We will never know with this stupid staff. in and out - out and in-

It is like they don't relise that the Defense changes when Beanie is in?

So yes they planned to shut down Beanie and Didn't, They shut down Fitz and Kolb at will.


Do you believe it. The guy is the Cards best offensive player.

When he's healthy, he's the 2nd-best. Fitz can't pass block and play QB, after all.

I love how when he got hurt, you didn't say a peep, but when he played you start trying to jump all over my case. He's missed a game-and-a-half this season, and hasn't had an acceptable season injury wise yet. So he played in this one. Good. Wake me up when he manages a full season, or even most of one.
