Deuce was not running well last season before the injury and some of us would rather contend that he "deserves" a chance to demonstrate whether or not he still has it or not than to acknowledge that it is even 'logical' to argue that his returning back to form is probably not likely (though not impossible). In other words, we are being more idealistic about it because it's Deuce than realistic about the fac that it will not be easy. Even when Deuce returned and did well in 2006, a lot of his success came as Reggie Bush was being used as a decoy. Those are truths that we must settle and, at the same time, hope the best for Deuce because he's a standup guy.
