Go with all 4 RB's, full crew of WR's and TE's. Don't use a roster spot on a back-up QB. If Weeden goes down, I want to see Beasley throw the rock :omg:

A bigger issue than the backs or the blocking today was the penalties taking us out of running situations.

And I still don't think we'll make a change at RB yet, though I agree that the idea of leaning on a power running game when our passing offense is otherwise on Weeden's shoulders for six weeks is more interesting than it was under Romo (where I was a lot more concerned about pass protection).

As a coach, I don't see how you don't at least get him in there and give him a few carries to see how he does. I personally feel Randle is an excellent second back and he'd benefit from having a battering ram weakening defenses like he did with Murray last year. Dunbar is effectively a receiver, so disable Lucky since we're not even using him on PR and bring in Michael. We don't have such an established runner that we don't spend time seeing what this guy can do, and knowing our injury history, who knows when Randle will go out? If CM stinks, we need to find out now so we can make moves in the event of injury to Randle or McFadden.
