Many have thought that backup Morris would inherit the starting job. Morris has served as Zeke's backup throughout the first five games of the season. Meanwhile, McFadden has been a healthy scratch. He has yet to touch the ball.
Though, the idea to possibly utilize McFadden as the primary back probably stems from the fact he was the team’s starter in 2015. Throughout 16 games, McFadden put up a total of 1,417 yards and scored three touchdowns. It was not a poor campaign by any means. In Morris’ two seasons with the 'Boys, he has tallied just 80 touches in a complementary role to Zeke. To be truthful, when Zeke & Morris would switch out without me catching it, I would find myself yelling GO ZEKE....to only find out it was Morris who moved the pile lol. I like Morris better. Simply because he knows his offense better due to playing.
THOUGHTS?
