This is really simple. You play Rico until he’s tired and asks for a break. You also sub in Chuba during obvious passing situations because Rico can’t block for poo. That’s it, that’s the rotation.

Well I agree, There's more at play here. Say you do just that and now its the off-season, Rico gets 3 years 32million from some team and Chubba is still here...... He's now upset after the team hurt his "ego" and now wants to be traded......

Now the Panthers are praying a double ACL'd RB can be the new lead back while he is thinking about retiring.....Tevor is still a #3, so.......drafting a RB in the first is back on the menu, followed by me and many others bitachin non-stop about spending a 1st on RB.....

I didn’t like it when we had Deangelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart, I like it even less with Hubbard and Dowdle. I also think it sends a bad message. It tells our backups that it doesn’t matter what they do or how well they play, they are locked into being a backup.

fuging hernaiy was paying top 5 money to BOTH of them, while the whole league was not paying RBs......

 

They should have traded dwill.....no they should have never draft either RB, they even signed Tolldozer to some high level contract as a 3rd option too. Just wasted cap space and draft resources when the smart teams had already de-valued RBs..... ugh...

If your goal is the playoffs and ultimately a SB ring, fug your ego. Do what is best for the team as a whole. Eventually Rico will have an off game or 2 and Chuba will get the bulk. It's just the way it goes.

I agree.

Again Chubba has just started his 4yr 32mill deal and Rico will be gone to the highest bidder in the off-season. 

They need to keep Chubba "happy" and he has earned plenty after replacing CMC. I think the best deal is to give this 2 more weeks and reevaluate. If Rico is the clear best RB and they are in the playoff hunt, fug dem egos!!

And it is delicate because Chuba is a Captain. I expect him to put the team first though, when push comes to shove.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
