I'm bamfoozled as to how this RB room will turn out. We have: Two older RB's w/ questions as to whether they can still play, a very fast rook who can't hold onto the ball, a very slow rook w/ poor lateral agility, a midget, and a FB that we refuse to use. Very strange RB room here, and I'm not sure we have a standout on the roster at RB. IMO, our best hope is that Williams has regained his burst.
Running game will no doubt make or break the Cowboys. If the running game starts off like it did last year that could mean Dak throws more which opens up a higher percentage chance of him getting hurt again. Unlike last preseason ALL the running backs should be playing during the preseason where they all get a chance to play equally.
Ok Stephen.
Do you think Dallas is looking for one of these backs to start or will it be by commity and do you think Williams has anything left in the tank.
I am looking forward to seeing how the running back room shakes out ,Mafah looks good to me and so does Blue. I really want a big back and a speed back behind this O line,I think it would work really well with what Shottenheimer and Adam's want to do with the offense. It would be a nice compliment to CeeDee Pickens and Turpin.
I hope Mafah turns out to be the power back he looks like in his Clemson film.A Robert Newhouse type of beast would be nice for a change.
I don't share your optimism. Enough time passed in 2024 for him to be fully healthy. Its likely the 2024 version of him is what he is now. Unfortunate for him because he could have been a Pro Bowl level player. But that was and injury and likely permanently robbed him of goos amount of ability
