    Tate is a career back up (for now).

    of course for now...He's only played one full nfl preseason game in the NFL and he's behind the league leading rusher.

    He is a career backup, at this point in his career.

    All purpose...maybe. But it's somewhat presumptuous to have Ben Tate #2 in the depth chart after a single (excellent) preseason outing. I think he'll take it, but we need to go a couple weeks into the season before getting too carried away.

    But man oh man the potential of this team....

    I will never support Tate being a starter unless he stops being a career backup.

    Youre right..Alot of RB's can run for 1000 yards in this system...But many of those RB's can be as productive as Foster in this system and have substantial impact on the win/loss column...
