Your logic is terrible though. You say they might have been better which is unrealisitic considering the success they achieved. But even if they could have done better, it wasn't RB that was holding them back. They were the top rushing team in the NFL during Shanahan's tenure.
By attempting to piggyback your legitimate concern over the Texans RB situation to the Broncos, you have ruined what could have been a valid point (we need help at RB). And I just don't understand what could have possessed you to put our running game issues at the feet of the two best running game coaches of modern NFL football (shanahan and gibbs).
With all of that said I too am concerned we don't have more at RB. I wish we'd drafted one (though not in the first two rounds). But it is the one position where it is still possible to easily upgrade. RBs are constantly cut and become available more often than any other position. Edgerin James just hit the market and has size and great durability. If not him, then I am confident we will find someone who can be a backup RB and carry the ball 10 times a game.
