It's all but official. MBIII is the featured running back. What of JJ then?

[GimmeTheBall!]

A commentary of accurate thought and logical logic from 50,000 watts of truth and the Armenian way.

You know, the more I think of it the more I think Parcells inadvertently played a mind game with JJ, which in turn took JJ into a tailspin of low productivity and fewer touches.


But, grassy knoll theories aside, somehow, something got into JJ's head.

Maybe it was Tres' bulldozer play. Or never recovering from nagging injury last year.

Maybe it was consistenty sending JJ up the middle. Something someone with more center of gravity does better.
Whatever, man.

What to do now with JJ? ​

So lets be GMs for a while here, unless you got something else that is really, really important and cant spare the freaking time for your Cowboys . . . .
OK, that's better.

Do we

1. Trade JJ, salary issues nothwithstanding.
2. Work him in more. Use him early then rests while Barber batters the defense in the second half.
3. Feature JJ as a receiving back. If he has good hands -- I don't know that he does -- then he can be explosive as a receiver.
4. Keep the status quo with Barber 60/ones 40
5. Work Tyson Thompson into Barber's opening act and have,in JJ, the NFL's best third-string RBs.

This is the move I taught Emmitt.:mchammer:

For this season we keep doing what we're doing. Maybe give a few extra carries to the Minnesotan Bulldozer. Next season we keep JuJo, but draft another RB, one that can return kicks and has some wiggle to him. Let him and JuJo compete. See what happens.

I think MBIII can be a good/very good starting RB, but I really like the role he's in now. We just need a better starter.



Side note: We need to have Armando Alejandro Estrada come out and introduce MBIII as "the Minnesotan Bulldoser" (yes the "S" is on purpose) for home games.

WWE fans will get that one.


Hey, maybe we should just call MBIII "Umaga".
