So does anyone want to claim Whaley isn't the better RB still? Hope he doesn't transfer.




Oh for Christ's sake.

We are running the ball by committee because we have the luxury of depth and talent at the position. If one gets hot, like Whaley did today, he'll get the bulk of the carries towards the end of the game.

I'm all in favor it. Keep the RBs fresh and go with the hot hand in the second half. This way if something does happen to Whaley, like he gets beat up by another WR, then we have two other backs getting quality snaps that can step in. If you are deep at a position use it.

Agreed.

We have three very good backs. This is a good problem to have. The issue with the ground game has been run blocking, not talent or depth at tailback.
