I think we run a lot and Tanner is gonna get carries and make the most. He reminds me of Marshawn Lynch.

I hope you are right. I am convinced that Murray is not a franchise back. He's capable of a good game here and there, but simply does not have the agility or vision to be a great runner. The best run I saw last week was Dunbar cutting back in the hole. Murray, on that play, would have taken a loss. I don't know that Tanner is the answer, but I would like to find out.

Clearly by now the coaches see that Murray is a square peg in this offense, I think Dunbar is worth 100yds in cutbacks alone.

I am afraid this is one of those games we run a lot in response to the criticism despite a D that is struggling in pass D, and even if we run well, don't do much scoring.

Give me a break. Murray is our back and that isn't going to change because he had a somewhat bad game against a stellar defensive line.

That's a good post. I can easily see that happening.

I think we win, but maybe not as high scoring as some people think.

Change Tanner to Dunbar and I am on board. Tanner does not do anything better than Murray at this point.

The running game has been receiving criticism for awhile the Cowboys will only run a lot if it's effective.

Spags wrote a couple days ago that Murray has 199 of the 649 yards the Cowboys have gained this year. He is an important part of the offense.

Yes, but when it reaches a crescendo Garrett usually has a game where he just goes overboard trying to stick to the run.

As a receiver as well as a rusher. He is also the best pass protector of the backs.
