I have about a .500 record online and want to improve.

I have a couple of areas I know I could be better at.

I play the Cowboys team. I often have trouble getting the running game going. Has anyone found this to be the case, and does anyone have some good ways to overcome this? Lately I have been starting Felix Jones over Barber, and this seems to help.

If I am playing the Vikings, Adrian Peterson is a total beast and runs all day. Same with the Titans and Chris Johnson. It almost seems unfair. Has anyone got the Dallas defense adjusted to make stops against these two? Another problem is Deshaun Jackson on KO returns for the Eagles.

For Cowboys running game, it depends what you want to do

If you like passing, I suggest starting Barber, if you run like 20% of the time Jones, but the person I use when I want to take away huge portions of the clock is Choice, I like his mix of power and speed in the game.
