I think they will be very conscious of him and it's important that we do spread the ball around. He is still going to have his share of big plays, but I think as we went on during the year, people understood that we were going to utilize him a lot and they tried to take measures to stop that. What it did was allow the other guys to catch a lot of balls.
Lamar is a big back with good speed and quickness. He also has the ability to catch the ball which will help him in this offense. He's a talented, young running back who should be a good compliment to the rest of the backs on this team. We're look forward to getting him into Philadelphia and onto the practice field this week.
I think all three of them, Westbrook, Perry and Moats, are similar in a lot of ways. Not in stature, but all three of them catch the ball well. They all are very quick.
It gets pointed at McMahon, but it's not all him. Everybody around him, me included, needs to pick up our games and make sure we're running the routes the right way and we're catching the football. You can't have six or seven drops like we did Saturday. We have to protect a little better. I have to make sure I'm getting him in situations and the receivers in situations where they can do things.
He made a heck of a catch down there for the touchdown, ... He came out and they were in a single safety, and he took advantage of it.
I did have a visit with him and it went well. We mainly talked about football. He was anxious to get back out here and get himself going and playing and catching up on the things that he missed. But he did a good job today.

I like his size and the way he runs the football. I thought he did a nice job of catching the football and I thought he was good in blitz pickup, recognizing people coming. Before he went to Miami, I thought he was a heck of a running back and he was in a numbers situation down there and his number was out. He is a good football player.
You don't let it be a distraction. That is not what you do. There are going to be things that happen and you don't focus on those things. You focus on getting the football team ready to play and you handle the other things up front the way we do it.
We're going to see how he does here in the next couple of days and how it reacts to treatment. It's that same type of pain that he's had. It's going to flare up. It's done that throughout his career and it's going to continue to do that. We just have to monitor it and see how he does.
We're going to do what we think will get us a win.
We can do a better job there. We will continue to look at that. We have to do a better job.
We feel bad from a team standpoint for Todd. He worked very hard this offseason. He was having a heck of a camp, and its a shame this happened.
We feel that we have the quality to get the three points and we want to win the group.
