Dunn not concerned about who's his backup | ajc.com
[SNIP] ...excerpts from middle of article...
Starter Warrick Dunn is not worried about who's behind him because he said he proved last week, when he gained 100 yards on 27 carries in a 20-16 victory over San Francisco, that the more he's worked, the more productive he is — so feed him the rock.
"Any back would say yes" to more carries, Dunn said. "I'm no different. If that happens you can be patient, take chances instead of running on and off the field, when you try to get the most out of that carry. When you're getting consistent carries you take more chances to make thing happen."
Suddenly, a group of players that seemed like an afterthought in the new offensive scheme implemented by coach Bobby Petrino and offensive coordinator Hue Jackson are going all Forrest Gump — they want to run and run and run.
