I would imagine they are holding some stuff back for the Philly game. Dont wanna show everything week 1 vs a non conference opponent.

They don't plan on a rotation like they did last year with JJ and Barber. Not going to be an every other series thing. It's more of a true starter-backup situation. Barber as the starter will get most possessions, with Jones coming in from time to time, or some plays during long possessions. And of course coming in some WITH Barber, and split out, etc. That's what I think they intend anyway.

Dallas scores on 3 of its first 4 possessions in the first half with Barber scoring twice and some people want to change that. :huh:

One game is not an indicator as to how the rest of the season is going to go. Felix could be in on the very first play in the next game in a two back set. They have lots of options.

I don't think there needs to be a set rotation. There was a set rotation last year because Julius was the starter and they wanted to make sure that Barber got good opportunities. This year is different. Barber only had 19 touches in the game with 16 rushes. That is nothing for a running back and with that the offense was popping.
