According to head coach Bruce Arians, "we haven't run the ball enough to get the other guys more carries."

He said the "games have dictated what we've been doing."

But it didn't sound like he planned on giving many carries to anyone else. "We'll just see how it goes and how Andre's feeling," he said. That, combined with the comment Arians made on Wednesday, saying "if (Andre's) fresh, he's staying in," indicates he doesn't really have plans of using right now.

What about rookie ?

He still "has no role" in the game plan. Grice said he is still "progressing" with the offense. He said he still isn't there yet and he still "(gets) confused at times" because he will think he's got it, but he coaches will burst his bubble.

He knows he doesn't have a role yet, but is "just trying to contribute on special teams right now."

Whether he is active on Sunday will be a numbers game, according to Arians. "It will depend on other injuries," he said, although he admitted that "we're rolling the dice a little bit" if they only go with three backs as they did last week.

Taylor has gotten only three carries all year so far. I talked to him 聽on Friday and his body language tells me he is a little frustrated, but he said the right things.

He "(tries) not to focus" on how his number hasn't been called much and he indicated he knows the coaching staff has confidence in him, even if it would appear the coaches don't have much trust in him in the running game.

He spoke of being patient.

"I can't let things I can't control bother me," he said. "That's when things get in your head and you starting moping around in the locker room and you start to mess up."

Taylor is competitive and is used to being a volume carrier, as he was a workhorse in high school and at Stanford.

But Arians is right -- they aren't running the ball enough to spread the carries out. The running back carries thus far have been 21, 25, 20 and 18. Jonathan Dwyer got 16 of those carries the first two weeks of the season.

Running the ball that little over the past two weeks, it makes sense to give the ball to Ellington. The team sees him as a big play threat and a dynamic runner and receiver.

It is, though, interesting, as Ellington has been bothered by a foot injury all season. He does not practice fully during the week.

Will things change against Washington? It didn't sound like it.

So if you want to see more carries from Stepfan Taylor or the integration of Marion Grice, don't expect much if Ellington is feeling good. He has suddenly become the only guy that appears to have the trust of his coaches.

-ABOARD A US MILITARY AIRCRAFT (AP) 鈥?Turkey will let U.S. and coalition forces use its bases, including a key installation within 100 miles of the Syrian border for operations against Islamic State militants in Syria and Iraq, American defense officials said Sunday.
-The Obama administration had pressed Turkey for a larger role against the extremists, and a senior U.S. official confirmed Saturday that Ankara had agreed to train and moderate Syrian rebels on Turkish soil. A Turkish government official said Sunday that Turkey put the number at 4,000 opposition fighters and said they would be screened by Turkish intelligence.
+According to head coach Bruce Arians, "we haven't run the ball enough to get the other guys more carries."
-U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, who has been traveling in South America, has said the U.S. wanted access to the Turkish air bases, including one at Incirlik in southern Turkey, from which to launch strikes against the Islamic militants.
+He said the "games have dictated what we've been doing."
-That base is part of the agreement, according to U.S. defense officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss private talks between the Americans and Turks.
+But it didn't sound like he planned on giving many carries to anyone else. "We'll just see how it goes and how Andre's feeling," he said. That, combined with the comment Arians made on Wednesday, saying "if (Andre's) fresh, he's staying in," indicates he doesn't really have plans of using  right now.
-Beyond the training and bases, there are other issues the U.S. hopes Turkey will agree to. U.S. officials have not said what all of those would be because discussions are continuing. The militants have taken over large swaths of Iraq and Syria and driven refugees into Turkey.
+What about rookie ?
-Hagel spoke by telephone Sunday with Turkey s defense minister, Ismet Yilmaz, and thanked him for his country s willingness to assist in the fight against Islamic State militants.
+He still "has no role" in the game plan. Grice said he is still "progressing" with the offense. He said he still isn't there yet and he still "(gets) confused at times" because he will think he's got it, but he coaches will burst his bubble.
-Rear Adm. John Kirby, the Pentagon press secretary, said Hagel noted Turkey s expertise in this area and the responsible manner in which Turkey is handling the other challenges this struggle has placed upon the country, in terms of refugees and border security.
+He knows he doesn't have a role yet, but is "just trying to contribute on special teams right now."
-Earlier, President Barack Obama s national security adviser, Susan Rice, made clear that the U.S. has not asked the Turks to send ground forces of their own into Syria.
+Whether he is active on Sunday will be a numbers game, according to Arians. "It will depend on other injuries," he said, although he admitted that "we're rolling the dice a little bit" if they only go with three backs as they did last week.
-American officials are continuing to talk to the Turks about other ways that they can play an important role. They are already essential to trying to prevent the flow of foreign fighters and extremists from exporting oil through Turkey. So Turkey has many ways it can contribute, Rice told NBC s Meet the Press.
+Taylor has gotten only three carries all year so far. I talked to him 聽on Friday and his body language tells me he is a little frustrated, but he said the right things.
-Turkey and other American allies are pressing the U.S. to create a no-fly zone inside Syrian territory, and seeking creation of a secure buffer on the Syrian side of the border with Turkey. A safe zone would require Americans and their partners to protect ground territory and patrol the sky, meaning enforcement of a no-fly area.
+He "(tries) not to focus" on how his number hasn't been called much and he indicated he knows the coaching staff has confidence in him, even if it would appear the coaches don't have much trust in him in the running game.
-Hagel has said American leaders are open to discussing a safe zone, but creating one isn t actively being considered.
+He spoke of being patient.
-Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has estimated it would require hundreds of U.S. aircraft and cost as much as $1 billion a month to maintain an area in Syria safe from attacks by the Islamic State group and Syria s air force, with no assurance of a change in battlefield momentum toward ending the Syrian civil war.
+"I can't let things I can't control bother me," he said. "That's when things get in your head and you starting moping around in the locker room and you start to mess up."
- Do I anticipate that there could be circumstances in the future where that would be part of the campaign? Yeah, Dempsey told ABC s This Week.<p>Related Articles:</p><ul><li><a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com/celine-doctor-frame-42>Celine Doctor Frame Bags</a></li><li><a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com/celine-luggage-43>Celine Luggage</a></li><li></li></ul>
