Who should be starting RB... The choice is clear

[CWBY82N23]

Who do you think should be starting RB? IMO Choice is the man, and should be givin more play time to prove himself over Bum, I mean Barber.

It is, but we didnt draft Chris Johnson.

Your first post.. calling Barber a bum... you have a lot to learn

First post on this webside yes, but all in fun man. Just don't think Barber is that good.

Its hard for anyone to run when half the time youre getting hit in the backfield.

Im tired of hearing about our line and how huge it is, how they just wear people out.

i can't understand why Choice doesn't get more regular carries. Barber is clearly hurt and hobblin all over the place, while Jones gets stufffed all the time because people know where he's going to run.

Start Choice and let him run up the middle. Get those 4 or 5 yards and then things are sooooo much easier. He's healthy, talented, successful, has a good head on his shoulders, can block, can catch etc...I don't understand his role, at all

I agree that there is just no where to run for any of the runningbacks. I do think, though, that choice should get a chance to see what he could do. He was the only positive thing going for us last December.

He's very talanted and still young, but unfortunally I don't think he's gonna get the opportunity in Dallas, with 2 other RB's. I hope so though, and hope he stays a Cowboy.

Start choice. Don't put Barber in until the 3rd quater. See both of them excel.

Oh I didn't realize Felix was out for the year. Then yes, seeing that Felix Jones is injured and can't play, then we should definitely start Choice.

It's the right choice. (See what I did there? Hurr.)

Lurk more.
Post less.

If I was going to start someone over Barber it would be Felix.

I've always thought T Choice was the best RB on this team. He's a work hose that can carry the load and has done so. Tired of these Felix fanboys TBH.

Exactly

Of course that completely ignores the fact that Barber is also a workhorse who's proven he can carry the load. Let's look at all of Barber's games with 20+ carries...

22 carries, 95 yards
27 carries, 127 yards
22 carries, 110 yards
28 carries, 142 yards
23 carries, 84 yards
25 carries, 71 yards
24 carries, 114 yards
20 carries, 99 yards

Now let's look at all of Choice's games with 20+ carries...

23 carries, 88 yards


So, which one has proven he is a workhorse?

The o-line is doing a poor job of run blocking. But Barber is too slow to hit the hole. He needs to go back to the closer role. Notice how much better he looked in that role in the past, and also he did well at the beginning of the year, because his body didn't start to wear down yet.

When Barber is fresh, that is when he becomes the Barbarian. And with our stable of backs we should be able to easily keep him fresh, but a certain someone just wants to run him into the ground while Felix and Choice just sit on the bench. Felix seems like he might be injury prone, so I get limiting his carries, but there is no excuse for not running Choice more.

So yes, Choice should start.

from barbarian to bum.

some fans just should go find another sport.

All of this nonsense reminds me of when Hambrick was the savior of the backfield.
