Alfred Morris

I feel bad for Alfred Morris. But his days as the lead back are over.

They were over the moment he signed with DAL.......he signed to be backup/insurance

Nothing beats Floaty wanting Kellen Moore starting over Dak when Romo got injured. And Moore being our franchise qb. lol.

Kellen Moore was already out for the year when Romo went down, wasn't he?

The best threads were when @Floaty said there was QB controversy brewing. Good times.

You're right. Moore got injured in practice. Romo a few weeks later vs Seattle. But Floaty was proclaiming him as Tony's future replacement.

whats his role on this team now? i dont think he played one snap against TB?

I said it after Jackson was released. Morris doesn't make this team next year. Dallas has made decision that they only need 1 RB on roster who doesn't play ST. All other RB will have to carry their weight on ST.

I think we're good keeping the four guys Linehan insists on Dunbar being his 3rd down back. I think DMac and Morris give us a good security blanket. We are going to the playoffs and the way the defense is coming on we may go deep. God forbid if anything happened to Zeke those two guys could push us over the finish line.

You want to pick up new backup running backs in the offseason they're a dime a dozen

This was my guess. Don't need him TODAY necessarily, but want to keep him fresh for playoffs. Just a guess.

I always thought the offense bogged down with Morris. He added nothing. McFadden can do anything he can do and with more of a burst. I didn't mind the replacement at all.

He (Morris) always seem to be making yardage when he was in the game.

Alfred Morris has been the consummate pro....hope he doesn't get the treatment that the Skins gave him.

I'm glad you recognized this too.

Not to mention that there are some pretty good backs available in the draft.
