This running back rotation is an odd situation. Last year our coaching staff had no issues getting two backs involved with an inferior talent(Julius). This year we have two good looking rookies who rarely get in the game, save a handful of plays.

It's maddening.

When Felix goes down Barber shouldn't get all of the carries. We have Choice, use him. Discuss.
I agree, I think Choice should be able to get in and get at least 4-5 carries even in a game as tight as this one. That game experience if valuable.

Btw...I think the same can be said about Martellus Bennett. When Witten went out, I was disappointed that Bennett didn't get more looks. I think there were two passes to Tony Curtis while Witten was gone. I may be wrong there though...either way, not enough Martellus.

I agree. If everytime Choice is in there we're either giving it to Barber (at FB) or throwing the ball then it makes it a lot easier for the opposing D to defend us.


Garrett is being dumb here. Give the rookie the dang football. It'll at least keep defenses honest when he's in there.

You must not know our coaching staff very well. This is the same team that went a whole game without giving Felix a single carry. I'm surprised they didn't start Ball over Jenkins and Scandrick.

Garrett has been dumb for a while now....one trick pony!
