    With Foster and Tate banged up, is it time to bring back a former top Houston rusher?

    Rather go with Dominick Davis... No, we actually need a lot of help so let's get Earl Campbell back.

    1-2 years ago, I would be down with bringing him back... but seriously where has son been all this time? Since let go by the Texans he hasn't been able to land on a roster for more then 3 regular games in 2011, if he can find redemption here that would be great but it doesn't seem likely.

    slaton couldn't run well after that neck injury, that's why he never caught on anywhere else

    Damn shame, his rookie year he looked like a star on the rise and then his career nose dives due to that injury. I imagine if healthy Slaton would be among the best 3rd down backs like Sproles and Woodhead.

    I here Matt Schaub is pretty mobile, might make a good RB.
