That cow I’m referring to is Theo Riddick. The second year man out of Notre Dame showed this past season that he could be a playmaker when given the chance. With Bush gone Riddick will likely get that chance. Riddick looked great in games against the Vikings and Dolphins this season showing clutch ability in the latter. The belief by many is that the Lions will take this route anyways.
