As much as I hate Westbrook, I cant possibly put him anywhere else but 1st on the list. He does get injured every year but when he plays, he is spectacular.

1. Westbrook
2. Jacobs/Barber
4. Portis

...and the only reason I don't have Portis tied with Jacobs and Barber is because it seems pretty evident that injuries have taken their toll on him. I'm afraid his career isn't going to last much longer.

...and while the same could be said of Westbrook, he's still the best.

I'm not sure Barber is even the best back on his own team.

This may be true. I have a feeling we'll know for sure in a few months.

Portis and Westbrook are better receiving threats than Barber and Jacobs. Jacobs is just a bruiser so I ranked him last.

I think Portis is starting to fade- but at the same time MB and his style will wear him down. Westbrook is clearly the most dangerous and feared back in the NFCE.

Jeez tough crowd. 1.5K is fading? Imagine Portis with our oline(run blocking which is the only thing they know how to do).

Westbrook
Portis
Barber
Jacobs

Whos the best at what? barber is the best red zone runner and best Short yard runner. The most agile I say Westbrook. best Receiver off the backfield, it's Westbrook. Portis would be the best Overrall back.

Ill take Barber.

He is one of the better all around backs in the league and is a touchdown machine.

I like Westbrook but he really isn't my style of running back.

I'd probably even take Portis over Westbrook.

dang, no love for barber...

i think if i woulda posted this at the end of the 13-3 year it would have been barber hands down. I guess i'm one of the few thats overlooking his off/injured year which tends to happen in sports every so often.

portis is hands down the best back in the nfc east.he can catch it,he can run between the tackles as good as any back in the league and he still can get to the corner pretty well,and he stands up blitzing LB like no other..clearly he is the best !!

Can you invite some other Commanders fans who aren't as bias as yourself? You know, so that we can read some other less bias opinions like those made by Cowboys fans on a Cowboys forum about Westbrook. :)

'Invite other Commanders fans'??? What the heck am I thinking???
