Yep, who is a damn good blocker. We need that more now, than a guy who wasn't putting up any yardage.

Tolbert didn't seem right this season. Even when healthy, he seemed to have lost a step.

Week 13?  Damn.

Not having Tolbert for goal line situations with a banged up Cam will hurt. 

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Well damn

Richie is a good bllocker, but he has made his fair share of mistakes this season.  Hopefully our run game can pick up we are a run first team and struggle to get to 50 rush yards/game that is horrible

I sort of blame Tolbert's injury on the coaching staff.  He came in to camp having lost weight.  It's obvious the coaches didn't think he was going to be as effective with the weight loss.  It looks like he put on 20 pounds very rapidly trying to get to the weight the coaches wanted and thus he sustains a knee leg injury.  The knees aren't designed to operate like that.

damn.  well maybe now we can use a proper FB to lead block, but we will miss his running.
