He's hurt, simple as that.

I'm going with that too..

I've been a huge fan of his, nobody runs with his style and aggression. Last year we were all calling for him to start and receive more carries away Julius Jones..

I really hope its injuries..

We will not have a QB controversy next year but what about a RB controversy?

Maybe we need a QB controversy... Maybe Jerry should bring not only a competent back up QB, but someone who can force Romo to play well or be at risk of being moved to #2 QB.

The fire was there in the Washington game and Seattle before he hurt himself.

If we bring in Holmgren as HC or Norv as OC, then that may reign Romo in somewhat.

Romo would kill in Holmgren's WCO.

I actually think Barber has turned old prematurely from his running style. The power is already gone after just 4 years.

Really? After 847 career touches, a number that is 264 behind what Emmitt Smith had after his third season? I don't remember many people saying Barber was washed up after he closed out the Washington game a few weeks ago, but perhaps the whopping 50 touches since then have pushed him over the hill.

Choice is probably our best overall runner at this point.

Barber is a finisher and Felix is a homerun threat.

great problem to have, except we have a dummy running the offense.

Ding, ding, ding!

The Giants have this "problem" and it jumpstarted basically all of their offensive success. But wait, we'll have this "problem" and it will result in none of them being used at the right times, and at least one or two entirely forgotten about for three-quarter stretches.

My solution? Barber's our horse in the fourth quarter, at the goal line and in short yardage situations. But he can be part of a regular rotation in any non goal-line or short-yardage situations in the first three quarters. You don't want to forget about him early, but he's not overly successful early (or at least it doesn't seem that way) and I think you can help allow him to be that true finisher late in games by not overusing him early.

Plain and simple, MBIII is still our horse. HE'S JUST HURT!!!!! Maybe, just maybe, the coaches should realize that we have two other quality running backs who might be able to spell him, not to mention give the opposing D's a change of pace look. Again, that would actually mean the coaches knew what they were doing.

Really? We're trading either Felix or Choice 1 year into their career? Cause I'm sure you realise Barber is going no where after signing the huge deal he did.

They're all three going to be here they're just going to have a really hard time getting them all the ball.

Trade chice for a 2nd
