Parcells had to go with the RB by committee. Thompson fumbles too often, makes mistakes on blitz pickup & doesn't catch passes; he also making much jump from lower quality college football to pros and starting is a lot to expect of him w/o our paying big price - so Parcells getting him gradual experience. Thomas hasn't shown anything this season but Giants do play well against the run. Agree Barber looks good but also lacks pro experience because he preseason injury set him back, but he did do better running the ball, picking up blitzes and making 2 catches. We will be seeing much more of him as season progresses. But these RBs not responsibility for poor running game; its been poor this season and we've all wondered why JJ hasn't gotten to 100 yards a game yet (except he on way against Eagles). It obvious our OL can't get the job done for whatever reason; this is something Parcells is really going to have to work them on. In any case we need to restructure our OL in the offseason (Adams is inconsistent and also 30; Allen is about 34 & often plays like 39; Johnson gets pushed back too often;Marco isn't performing at the pro bowl level I expected & rookie Pettiti needs to continue to develop. We must get quality players behind them who can step in and/or pick up a FA vet to step in replacing one of them and draft a good young OL in next round next year.
