Tashard starts.

Tashard & Felix alternate series.

MBIII goes back to when he was at his best.

3rd down back, short yardage, red zone, 4th qtr closer.

MBIII ends up getting more PT than the other 2 but is fresher and on the field when it matters most.

This way Tashard/Felix actually get involved in the game plan and it forces Garrett to use them.

At this rate it will take until 2013 for Garrett to figure out how to use all 3 (especially Felix).

If you are uncomfortable with Felix in pass protection give his snaps to Tashard.

If this O is to go the next level figure out how to use all 3.

It really isn't that difficult.

If Garrett had been the OC at Arkansas Felix would have been a UDFA.

The amazing thing is it seems like Zimmer has recovered and become more of a hot HC prospect than Wonder Boy is.

I have no clue why you guys don't use Choice for the bulk of the carries

If I were Red Jesus Choice would get close to half the carries

Jones the majority of the rest. And Barber short yardage and closing the game out in the 4th quarter

Your offense appears to stall whenever MB is in there

And that goes to show why neither of our teams is going to do diddly poo anytime soon

When you have Portis' and MB's of the world getting the majority of the carries because of their contracts, when they are superior guys behind them, and because of ownership influence, your organization is broken.

Choice isn't just a good back, I saw him play plenty while he was at GT, he is outstanding. A Choice-Jones 1-2 punch is the best approach for your O

I just want MB and the Cat healthy.

They have clearly not been healthy.

Why don't you watch how many yards we got against NY (#1 defense) when we ran from the shotgun?

Health has been a major factor over the past month.

MB has been ok, no one wants to say this but it's when Felix has been in there the O has stalled the last few weeks.

I'm afraid Choice might go the way of Michael Turner, we'll eventually lose him without ever using him only to see him become a beast somewhere else :bang2:

One of them should be sitting until he is healthy. Choice can handle the load but Ginger won't even try it.
