Wow! Maybe!!!

FoxSports.com's John Czarnecki reports that Tim Hightower is expected to start against the Rams Sunday.

[English on tour]

dont get me wrong, i think he is great but 2.7 yards per carry this season seems to be going un noticed here with timmy. has a nose for the endzone without doubt but taking most carries today is a gamble.

tin hat on.

 

[AzWins23]

espn just reported that Hightower will see more carries. Didnt say anything about starting

 

[Arizona's Finest]

WTF?

How in the hell did we end up more injured then the Rams going into this game??? Laboy, Doucet, and Ben Patrick ALLOUT?

Little and Jackson both active?

That sucks - what a swing of health.....

 

[Black Jesus]

LaBoy is the only one that hurts

 

[Assface]

Good luck, Hightower!

 

[PDXChris]

Yup, he did start and got a first down on his first carry.

 

[D-Dogg]

He started.

 

[nashman]

he started and our offense looks like utter crap for 4 straight possessions and counting, great move! I said before your don't f@#$ with what wasn't broken, but no so many wanted the kid to start well you got your wish hope we don't lose the division because we decide to screw around during the biggest 3 game stretch we have had in years!

 

[D-Dogg]

Nashman, Hightower has looked VERY good playing. They are forcing the run though, which is why the offense was stalling. But Hightower did things that Edge can not.


Edge must be DEEP in the doghouse, btw, because he isn't even sniffing the field.

 

[nashman]

he has looked VERY good ...WTH are you watching? you mean when he barely gets a yard or loses yards on a few plays or the three straight runs from the 2 that he couldn't punch in? Not sure what him playing very good in your eyes is, oh and one block he had to pick up he held for a half second and Warner took a nice shot. Yep he is playing great just like the whole offense 3 points in almost a half of football....right!

 

[D-Dogg]

Your theory sounds kinda lame, I think I'll pass.

 

[nashman]

Well TH is getting the carries and how does our offense look? 3 points in a half yeah good idea to screw with the O this time of year! OK that TD run was nice!!! ok lets get it together boys!

 

[Kablansky]

This team just got very, very dangerous by establishing a real running game.

 

[vince56]

daaaamn, Hightower is fast! I love watching this guy run, he's the real deal. That vision and burst on the TD run right before halftime was a thing of beauty!!

 

[Doc Cardinal]

30 yard td runs help you be a starter in da NFL.

 

[vince56]

Can we get a mod to change this thread title from "Hightower Starting "*question mark*" to "Hightower Starting *exclamation point*"

Thanks

 

[Shane]

We finally have our stud RB and we got him in the 5th freaking round!

I love me some timmy Hightower.

 

[Red Hawk]

Hightower rules...


NASHMAN DROOLS!!!

 

[az1965]

Where is Nashman???

 

[Cheesebeef]

he started and our offense looks like utter crap for 4 straight possessions and counting, great move! I said before your don't f@#$ with what wasn't broken, but no so many wanted the kid to start well you got your wish hope we don't lose the division because we decide to screw around during the biggest 3 game stretch we have had in years!

so, what are your thought now that the game is over?

 

[nashman]

He did well for his first game nice to see. However what is the deal he can't pick up the short ones now? Also don't like the carries for losses that put the O in 2nd and 3rd and longs. He did very well though if he can maintain this for the rest of the year and not get Warner killed by all means start him. I am a cards fan and want them to win over anything else! How many yards would the kid have had without all the losses? Our oline still needs to work on blocking man if they were better this offense would be unstoppable!

 

[nashman]

Also on a sidenote JJ had a few nice runs today!
