It's time to start looking at Perine, no? Starter Chase Brown continues to struggle (3.5 YPC, one touchdown on the season), and he isn't creating explosive plays. While Perine saw only four carries against Baltimore last week, he did score on a goal-line attempt, plus he had 78 total yards and a touchdown (15.8 points) in Week 5 at Miami. With Brown's lack of production, I'd take a shot here and hope for Perine to see more usage against Tennessee on Sunday.
